Hi Jonathan,

Thanks a lot for your proposal. I'm sending your mail to the developers
list so we are sure they are aware of it.

Kind regards

Hello list,

My name is Jonathan Nadeau and I'm the executive director of the
Accessible Computing Foundation located here

http://www.accessiblecomputingfoundation.org

I'm looking to fund some developers to fix some accessibility bugs with
Libreoffice and the Orca screen reader.

Nadeau isn't cc'ed on Sophie's original email and I don't know if he's
subscribed to any of these email lists, but I think it's worth
mentioning that the work in progress of moving our dialogs to the gtk
builder file format now makes it super super easy to: 
a) set that a label is the right mnemonic widget for something else,
which sets up the default a11y label for, label by relationships between
them
b) add a11y descriptions, a11y names, explicit label-for, label-by and
member-of etc relations

I'm not particularly a11y experienced, but I fired up orca a few weeks
ago and tweaked our a11y support a bit until it read out the
"format->title page" dialog the same way as it would read it if it was a
native gtk dialog.

Obviously there's a lot more a11y-wise to just our dialogs, but at least
for those new-format dialogs anyone with experience in tweaking gtk a11y
issues via glade can directly apply that experience to our new dialogs.
