Derek, you can jump down from your high horse, I'm simply trying to
give a rational logical point which, yes, I am perfectly entitled to
give. As the person who originally started this group up over 15
years ago, I think I have some working experience of what I'm talking
about! Anyone is entitled to set up a group and good luck to them!
However, from all the various other so called tech groups that have
been set up over the many years, how many of them are still going?
This group was set up for the very purpose of general assistive
technology. I think I'm right in assuming that it is still the biggest tech
group. Does that tell you anything?

Freedom of choice? Perhaps that's appropriate in context of buying
things but it's totally irrelevant to this situation. It's not
freedom of choice we want, it's accurate concise information, not
confusion and frustration from a plethora of lists.

Steve

because then people have freedom of choice.
It's like why are there so many dealers selling same or similar I.T
kit for the blind, visually impaired.
Do we really need so many companies?

Precisely Steve. So the question is: why?

Great, one thing though, how many times do we need to reinvent the wheel?
Do you not think that yet another tech group just breaks down and
fragments the amount of quality information we get from a one central
resource?

Or, does your group specialise in something specific to do with screen
readers?

Steve
