Hello,

I'd like to know a bit more about accessibility in the upcoming Trisquel
5.5. I'd have some specific questions:

Is Orca included and enabled in Trisquel by default? Can a full install
be done using it?

How does it compare to Ubuntu - are any non-free components related to
accesibility removed?

I was at LibrePlanet but can't remeber these specifics, it would help if
someone can remind me of this.

I am hoping Jonathan Nadeau is on this list :) Otherwise I'll ask him
directly later.

Cheers,

It is included, and in the i18n images it comes enabled by default.

Any improvements to Ubuntu would be due to taking more care, no non-free packages are involved in this issue. Based on the impressions I've been given so far, the package selections for Trisquel are better than Ubuntu's (GNOME fallback is more accesible than unity, and so on).

Hi,

Orca is included in both the I18N and smaller Gnome Desktop Editions of
Trisquel, but enabled, by default, in the I18N Edition. A full install
and live session are possible with these editions, eyes-free. I have not
yet found any non-free accessibility related code in this up-coming
release. I've been using the betas since about 20-March. For
accessibility improvements over what ships in the current Trisquel, I have
upgraded Libreoffice to 3.5, and orca to 3.3.4. Trisquel is derived from
Ubuntu 11.10, and has the non-free code and Unity removed. I think Unity
2d is available from the repositories.

Evolution is no longer accessible. Thunderbird 11 is less accesible
than previous versions. These are not specific to Trisquel. For good
mail accessibility, I use alpine in the terminal. The login manager
(lightdm) is not accessible. I have automatic login set, since I am the
only user on this netbook. If you are the only user, but wish to have a
login password, just type it, once drive activity stops, and hit 'enter',
you should be ok. I'm not sure how you can select from among users in
lightdm without accessibility. I think this is fixed in Ubuntu 12.04?

HTH,
