[Bug 964685] Re: High contrast and High contrast inverse themes are poor quality for the Unity desktop

As highlighted it appears that bug reports required are far more
extensive than I had been able to trace prior to input from Canonical.

the list of affected packages to which bug reports have to be applied:

1) Compiz
2) gnome-control-centre
3) indicator-applet (Two Bugs)
4) gnome-accessibility-themes
5) gnome-accessibility-themes-extras
6) humanity-themes
7) apport 

There may be more. I am still checking info against different
information - as I don't want to be accused of filing the wrong bug
reports.

I don't know the value of unity-design at lists.ubuntu.com - given that
basic accessibility should have been designed in throughout - yet
appears to have been designed out.

If it had been a factor in the basic design process it would be rock
solid and fucntional in the Beta to allow  people who need it to be
included in the wider prooving and bug hunting. The failure at the
design stage to respect that is not a matter that I take lightly. To me
it is simply unacceptable and discriminatory.

Maybe they need to hear that - and as I have been discussing today -
maybe Canonical require a Accessibility  Champion/Guardian to protect
the rights of Disabled people to have access - and also protect Ubuntu
overall from the risks that come from getting it wrong.

I have to say - that in dialogue with individuals across multiple routes
I am shocked at the laise faire attitudes I keep encountering  - and the
wrong headedness I keep encountering to so many matters and risks.

I am most unhappy with much that has been communicated and the way that
it has occurred - and that is not just a reference to this thread. I am
most seriously considering If I should be using Ubuntu at all - quite
something after 5 years and the way I have pushed it to so many people.
