Hi
when you say, "full issue" I am guessing you mean, a full version, not a
patch. This is correct. However, if you are an msn messenger user, stay
away from 6.1. I am also becoming increasingly disgusted with FS and their
lack of interest in fixing their software. They now say they will fix MSN
6.2 and 7.0 in the next version of JAWS, which will be 7.0, tentatively
scheduled to be released this summer if all goes well. This is absolutely
unacceptable! Why release a product that breaks a widely used application,
to add a few feature that maybe, oh I dunno about 2 other people are gonna
use? I mean really, does anyone actually think they're going to use all
these stupid features they're adding now? Nobody but the developers really
use these features, and they're really losing touch. It's like I've always
said. FS works on a schedule. Even if the program is buggy, oh well it's
the date we said we'd release it, so here you go, it's got more bugs than a
summer camp in August, but here ya go.
and when we report bugs, they say deal with it! If they keep this crap
up, I think we'll see a lot of people switching to another
screenreader from a company that actually gives half a crap about its
customers. I'm no huge fan of Window-eyes, but I am really beginning to see
why the faithful fans of it think the way they do.
