But, after the current deadlines are met and the Google summer of Code is
over, I need to complete some work on an accessible midi sequencer (for my
wife). Then I might be able to dig into Mac accessibility.

Is this accessible MIDI sequencer going to become part of Audacity? Or,
is it a separate program that might at some point become available?
There is someone working on enhancing the MIDI features within Audacity
that will add at least some editing capabilities and I will attempt to make
that usable, but I haven't seen it yet so really can't speak to it very
much.
The sequencer I'm working on is derived from the Jazz++ MIDI sequencer from
like 2004 or so. From what I gather, Jazz++ had quite a following back in
the day and it does seem fairly capable. However, it was abandoned and it
didn't keep up with later releases of wxWidgets and other libraries.
It is currently being revived by the main project and my little side
project.
We started the revivals about the same time (without knowing about each
other), but, so far, I've decided to remain separate. The reason is that
if I run into something that I can't make visually appealling while
remaining fully accessible, then that's the way it will be. My goal is
accessible, not pretty. If I can get both, fine, but accessible takes
priority.
And yes, I will be making it available...if I ever finish the darn thing.
I was supposed to have gotten it ready for my wife's birthday (today), but
failed due to some major changes in Audacity that required some attention.
