Instead of trying to start an on-line school for blind programmers, would it be possible to organize as a volunteer organization to mentor people with vision impairments to become good programmers? For example, you guys mostly had to figure it out on your own, so you can say you've already trained one programmer. What if we try to get people to train two? So, if several of us agreed to train one person with a vision impairment for free, and over a long period of time, and in return we ask those people do the same for two other people, could we build a growing organization of mentors with vision impairments large enough to make a real difference?
