Hi Willem,
Is that the project funded by Sun to develop a screen reader for Linux.  I
think it is called Mercator?

There are seveal other lists for programmers interested in accessiblity
issues.  Some are very specific such as list for JAWS programmers, voice
programmers, VB programmers, hardware, etc.

This list tends to generate a great deal of unwanted spam but I keep my
subscription just incase something comes up such as someone knowing
something about Mercator.

I also belong to the Michigan Linux User Group.
