[Wunder, Gary]

Hi Reinhard. I'll get together a list, on which your name is first, and
then figure out how to get out the product and in what number.

Thank you sir.

Yes I am very interested.   Could you please tell me who I need to show
my
credentials to?  I am a totally blind individual and am the first
totally
blind person to graduate from the school of engineering at Texas A & M.
I
look forward to servicing this means.  This is one of my goals to test
for
accessibility of software.

Hi folks.  As you will remember from our Web Masters meeting, our
national 
office is revising our website and, as importantly to us, our content 
management system.  Directly for us, this is meaningful because the
content 
management system is screen reader accessible and all of us will have
access

to it.  This changes, to some degree, our emphasis on the use of
Contribute 
and Macromedia's DreamWeaver.



Having said all of this, we still have the request from Macromedia to
help 
them make their software accessible which I believe we should honor, 
welcome, and emphatically embrace.  We have now been asked to evaluate
the 
newest version of DreamWeaver, so is anyone in this group interested in 
doing accessibility testing given a copy of the software is provided to
you.

This implies we are looking for people who, in receiving a $400 product,
are

willing to give $400 in labor to thoroughly learn to use, test and then 
report on your testing.



Thank you.



Gary
