[Fsfe-uk] Accessibility suite [Fwd: gok 1.0 is here!]

[Richard Smedley]

The GNOME accessibility project has been steadily making Free Software more
accessible to people with vision and/or motion impairments. In fact Free
Software is close to beating its proprietary counterparts here.

I forward this as, as anyone running a business will know, it is
now also a legal requirement to make your workplace computers
accessible.

After 3 years of GNOME cvs commits, we are pleased to announce version 
1.0 of GOK, the GNOME Onscreen Keyboard suite!
We judge GOK to be robust, reliable, and ready. This announcement is 
going to be a little longer than usual, as we attempt to give proper 
credit for all who have helped GOK reach 1.0.
We dedicate the 1.0 release to the memory of Jon Kameoka who we miss  very
much. (http://www.utoronto.ca/atrc/reference/memorial/)

go gok!

regards,

David, Bill, and the rest of the GOK team

What is it ?
=================

GOK is designed to allow access to the GNOME desktop and other X
applications by people who cannot use a physical keyboard (or mouse), or 
in situations where a physical keyboard is not present or undesireable.

Where can I get it ?
