Hi !

Are you involved in any disabled/blind people organization ?

I'd like to know if there is an Ubuntu group focused in accesibility issues, to join it.

In Spain, "Spanish Blind People National Organization" (ONCE) is fostering collaboration between distributions to improve Gnopernicus and Voice synthesis/recognition. 

Now we are preparing a requirements analysis for Gnopernicus to be really useful and easy to learn.

We could merge both groups.

Saludos.
