[gui-talk] will Webvisum be rendered useless?

the guy who did Solona got sick and the service hasn't been available since that happened.  From the little I have been able to gather, he couldn't get anybody to help him with the captcha solving service.  So, what that meant was that he was the only one doing it; both day and night.  It's been at least three months now since I've heard this news.  Webvisum is not usable with Safari, and, Firefox cannot yet be used on the Mac accessibly.  In short, unless somebody else picks up Solona, or, somebody else comes up with a better solution, frankly, we're screwed.

And because Solona is already on life support, there soon may be no captcha solving solutions left.  I suggest hanging onto Firefox 4 or earlier as long as you can.  Besides, the screen readers won't be able to keep up with each new Firefox release, either.
