on "3-8-2003" "Kee Hinckley" writ:
: the ones I've seen proposed require that you can see.
: They will not pass federal requirements in the U.S. as they currently
: stand. And if they get widely deployed outside of the federal arena
: you are certain to see accessibility lawsuits. Solveable perhaps by
: including both visual and audio prompts, but someone should start
: thinking about it now.
... i lay claim to being the "guy that's blind in one eye, and can't see
out the other".
what, exactly, are the "fed's" requirements with regard to 'americans
with disabilities' vis-a-vis 'software'. is that an implication, or a
requirement of the statute.
the 'threat' of lawsuits in the us is a given, so that something of a
moot point.
i am at a loss in 'seeing' (sorry) how a 'visual prompt' helpful to
those blind enough to warrent its use ...
