All,
I should explain, we are in a training workshop organised by ITU on inclusive e-apps, in Chiang Rai Thailand. The workshop brings together experts in the Daisy accessibility and audio book project www.daisy.org (Professor Kawamura) and also we did a session on L4C. We see a lot of parallels and were wondering if in some way there is potential to develop a "Save as Daisy" function as is the case with MS Word and Open Office, where you can download a free extension to save as a Daisy audio book from the Daisy website. It stuck us that maybe the Open Office version, which is FOSS, could be adapted to the WikiEducator. As Daisy is right at the forefront in accessibility standards development this would seem to make sense. But maybe the technologies are not compatible? Anyway, I thought it worth mentioning!

Wikieducation got own heading and special tags we can use this. And converting process will be other more advanced server that includes speech engine. We will add books in queue to convert that we can avoid server performance :) it is only a brianstorming...
