Hi!
This is some information for the report.
Keyboard:
- KDE enhanced its keyboard code to fully support the draft keyboard spec
Speech synthesis:
In Hawaii, we started to document needed changes to the audio system needed
for screen readers. The discussion continued online afterwards. A summary can
be read at:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/accessibility/2005-May/000055.html
The meeting in Hawaii was also the first opportunity for a various projects
writing speech synthesis abstraction APIs to discuss a closer cooperation.
After the meeting
- discussions to define a shared API were started
- merging the KDE Speech Synthesis framework with SpeechDispatcher was decided
- bridges between various other speech synthesis APIs on Linux and
SpeechDispatcher have been written.
