Welcome Mary!

Most Ubuntu usability testing is done by Canonical, however, the
Accessibility Team wanted to start doing some usability testing
specifically looking at use by people with disabilities. I started to
prepare to do this, but have had to step back due to my own health. If
you're at all interested, I'd be happy to work with you. I know it's a
project that the usability person at Canonical is interested in so I can
also introduce you to her. You can find me either by e-mail (
pstowe at gmail.com or pendulum at ubuntu.com) or on IRC as Pendulum (I'm in both
Ubuntu Women IRC channels and #ubuntu-accessibility on freenode).
