[libreoffice-accessibility] Re: Java access bridge again.

OK tom thanks,

I would like this working but I have just about ran out of answers I 
have as stated before said I have conflicting reports some people have 
said that Open office have broken accessibility in the latest version 
and therefore the same code gets passed along to Libra office and the 
code is also as a result been broken for accessibility, it seems 
ridiculous that in this day of age that the blind users are expected to 
jump threw so many hoops just to get accessibility! if the sighted were 
asked to jump threw these hoops I doubt that the software would be 
around for very long. I really think it's about time some real 
accessibility was added. I have been asking open office for years to try 
and add ia2 support this would at least have it working straight out of 
the box for Nvda.

I have heard that the ia2 code has now at last been releiced from IBM, 
but I don't hold out much hope that it will be added into distros any 
time soon I would like someone to step up and tell me if the 
accessibility is broken for now or not. if someone has it working and 
were willing to talk me threw getting it working over skype I would be 
very happy to do this. Skype name is mm0tmg. thanks as always for any 
responses good or bad.
