who ever said running linux didn't have a downside. besides, if linux is so adaptable and wonderful, how come it can't manage to do this? what is it about the sitewhich won't work in Linux? --- Of course if it were my website, it woulden't be an issue, and it's also worth noting you can get to the files on the nls website with linux ust fine (at least last time I tried) I can't see how security has to be that different. Of course the irony isn't lost on me (accessibility project being inaccessible) but you really should expect this being a linux user. btw, has anyone tried the libraries for bringing up guis in text mode? the tag line on slashdot was about Conquorer in text-mode. </stream of consiousness> J -----Original Message----- From: blinux-list-admin@redhat.com [mailto:blinux-list-admin@redhat.com]On Behalf Of Cheryl Homiak Sent: Sunday, April 14, 2002 11:23 AM To: speakup Cc: blinux-list@redhat.com Subject: Re: bookshare inaccessible? Janina just informed me bookshare doesn't have accessible software for linux yet. Sorry, from the thread I read I thought somebody had resolved it. I think that's really rotten of them to set it up so it's inaccessible to linux and then not even make that clear to people while they are giving their big sales plug! It's like if you are blind and a non-windows user, you don't even exist! Nothing at bookshare that says "accessible only to Windows users"--at least not that I found; just trumpetting about their wonderful new service that i could have thrown $75 down the drain for.! Fine, if it's not accessible, they could at least state that clearly. They certainly made the demo page accessible; very misleading! _______________________________________________ Blinux-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
