So I guess that means my idea was rejected... I've posted a couple things there, and got rejection replies. all I have is an LTLK synthesizer and a barely functional copy of Windows and NVDA on a laptop. If it weren't for SpeakUP, I prolly wouldn't be computing at all. Can't afford to keep chasing viruses and buying upgrades. Hell, can barely afford to eat. Don't get me wrong. I love Debian. It's the only thing keeping me in contact with the rest of the world. If I had the knowledge, I'd do what they're doing for Fedora, and set up sources.list links for the latest SpeakUP compiles and put real dpkg support out there. I'd originally thought that was what debian-accessibility was for, much like the guys at debian-unofficial, where you couldapt-get install what isn't being officially supported. Michael
