The Java Accessibility Client project is the successor of WE4Java, by Jay
Macarty. He was trying to get it started on SourceForge in June of this
year. The objective is to provide an alternative to the Java Access Bridge
for any Windows screen reader. I'm sure Jay would appreciate some help.

Hi,
I've never heard of the so called Java Access Client. The only technologies
I'm aware of that provides accessibility feedback to the operating system
(on Windows) are the Java Access Bridge and the We4J, or We4Java script
system for Windows Eyes. Is there anything else available?
My experience has been that the JAB functions the best with NVDA when
compared to older JAWS versions (8.0). For more recent JAWS versions the
situation might be different but people tend to recommend using Open Office
with NVDA rather than even recent JAWS versions (for example).
I would imagine the Java Accessibility API is pretty cool since you get
excellent results on Linux with Open Office (RE accessibility), so there is
no reason why the same could not be done on Windows. What *bridge* system /
software is the glue on Linux? Is it I2A?
