[macvoiceover] Try, try again - 3rd party program accessibility - Response

OK, one more time...
Here is my letter to our campus Mac guru and his response. As you can see, he would like Apple bug numbers for Apple problems and any correspondence you have had with third party vendors about Voiceover compatibility. Please send this information to me off list at scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and I'll forward it to him. And if you haven't filed bugs or asked vendors about Voiceover compatibility,please do so and forward the results to me. 

THanks

Hello Marshall:
I am checking with my contacts at Apple about options to give feedback & support.
Have you filed bug reports on each of these Apple products? This is really the first step in of the process, we really need bugs filed on each application. 

If not, please do so and then email me the bug numbers.
In regards, to third-party software have you emailed the companies about the issue? 

If so, could you email me the email & their response?
I know this sounds like a lot to due, but its the first step of the process.

Hello Richard,
I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you about the conversation we had about Voiceover compatibility in third party programs after the July Mac Managers meeting. Here are the results of my posts to the blind Macintosh user lists: The third party programs mentioned were Microsoft Office, Adobe Acrobat, Dream Weaver Cs, BBEdit, 4D, Filemaker, the Talking communities and Chatterbox chat clients, Nissus Writer and Pro Tools. Due to the wording of the post, I also received a surprising number of comments about Apple products. iTunes topped the list of problem programs but people would also like the programs in iLife and iWork suites to be made Voiceover compatible. Final Cut Pro and XCode tools (particularly Interface Builder) finished off the list of Apple software. On the hardware side, people would like an accessible iPod and iPhone.
I realize this is more than you expected. How do you suggest we proceed? 

Thanks,
Marshall
