Hi
when you say, "full issue" I am guessing you mean, a full version, not a
patch. This is correct. However, if you are an msn messenger user, stay=20
away from 6.1. I am also becoming increasingly disgusted with FS and
their=20
lack of interest in fixing their software. They now say they will fix
MSN=20
6.2 and 7.0 in the next version of JAWS, which will be 7.0, tentatively=20
scheduled to be released this summer if all goes well. This is
absolutely=20
unacceptable! Why release a product that breaks a widely used
application,=20
to add a few feature that maybe, oh I dunno about 2 other people are
gonna=20
use? I mean really, does anyone actually think they're going to use all=20
these stupid features they're adding now? Nobody but the developers
really=20
use these features, and they're really losing touch. It's like I've
always=20
said. FS works on a schedule. Even if the program is buggy, oh well it's
the date we said we'd release it, so here you go, it's got more bugs
than a=20
summer camp in August, but here ya go.
and when we report bugs, they say deal with it! If they keep this
crap=20
up, I think we'll see a lot of people switching to another=20
screenreader from a company that actually gives half a crap about its=20
customers. I'm no huge fan of Window-eyes, but I am really beginning to
see=20
why the faithful fans of it think the way they do.
