Hi,

Waiting for news about Iaccessible2, Symphony, OOo, Apache, etc... well waiting
for news about this mess, I hope I'll make things progress
through various little points. Here's what reported an user of Windows
Vista, with the screen reader NVDA.

At the 1st starting of LibreOffice, NVDA doesn't work. In options menu,
accessibility tab, NVDA says the tabs but then, doesn't read anymore the
dialogue. The user checks then the checkbox "support software for
disabled people". He asks now: couldn't this checkbox checked by
default? If not, it'd be important to give a way to a blind people to do
the above process with some audio help, as NVDA doesn't speak until this
checkbox is checked.

Thanks for your answer. Although it won't give a whole accessibility with
Windows, it'll make easier use LibreOffice for impaired people with NVDA with a
speech synthetiser. For a better accessibility in general, I guess we've to
wait and see evolution of some issues.

Regards,
