Hi
Well, I'll drop my opinion in here, why not?
I agree with you on this one, Keith. Discussing the accessibility of
virtualization software with Voiceover is one thing, and that's
great. But let's keep the actual discussions about Windows screen
readers and the usage of windows off the list, as it's really not
relevant. An example:
Asking how accessible VmWware Fusion is with Voiceover, or how to
navigate it, would be acceptable in my mind. Asking questions about
how well Jaws or window-eyes will work is not, and inevitably
detracts from the list's focus on Voiceover. I have to point out the
debate that happened a little while back about which windows screen
reader works better in Fusion, and I was afraid for a while it was
going to turn into yet another Jaws vs. Window-eyes flame fest, and
I've seen enough of those to last a lifetime. So, let's keep
Voiceover on this list, and the windows screen readers off. They
have their own lists, as well as the general access lists.
Just my $0.02 on this for what it's worth
