Re: UltraSonix screen-reader for X-windows available at BLINUX site

aloha, brian!

you are correct in stating that there is no linux port of the ultrasonix
source code at the present time, hence the filename:

	UltraSonix.source-7.0.tar.Z  (2.4 MB)

and, as you noted, 
>The file
>listed above is the original public release of the UltraSonix sources
>which were written for a SPARCstation + Solaris.
>  There is a Linux port under way, but it has
>only just begun.

now, a question...

since you're working on the port, would you be willing to keep the members
of blinux-list, as well as linux-access and uab-l, apprised of the port's
progress?  i've linked your web pages concerning the port to the blinux
web site (http://leb.net/blinux) and would like, when you are ready for
such a step, to add a link to the "Betas in Search of Testers" page...
and, with your permission, i'd like to mirror the port update page
in ASCII form at the BLINUX FTP Archive,

	ftp://leb.net/pub/blinux

as for the rest of you hackers, once you download the public 
non-commercial release of the UltraSonix source code 
(ftp://leb.net/pub/blinux/UltraSonix.source-7.0.tar.Z) please keep the
rest of us apprised of you work/progress and let us know when you need
our input--after all, that's the primary purpose of these lists... 

thanks for the clarification brian--i apologize for any misunterstanding
and confusion i may have caused with my original post...

gregory.
