Hi Omar,
I would be interested, and will help in anyway.
My thought is to enquire not by email but directly through phone, and talk
with a live person such as their operations manager.
If you like, I'll check this out and contact you off list so we don't tie
this list up.
I had a similar problem with Propeller head for their V Sampler.
Roxio was another such company that told me over the phone that they
wouldn't make their product accessible, however I won't go in to details
here.
Just let me know what you want me to do.
James

Subject: [ddots-l] Native Instruments Accessibility
Hello All:
Native instruments softsynths and samplers are, for the most part, pretty
inaccessible for blind users. This is really unfortunate, because they have
some awesome sounds that I think we'd all appreciate tremendously. We
recently had this discussion on the Dancing Dots list, and it was suggested
that, rather than trying to force them to accommodate our needs through
legal action, we should try and prove to them how changing their interfaces
would also benefit their sighted users. I'm personally very interested in
getting something going if anyone has any ideas as to how we might approach
them in a positive manner. If anyone is interested, I welcome any
suggestions on how we might accomplish this.
Thanks.
Omar Binno
