>the
>Project is to involve expert braille users. These experts will
>provide
>valuable feedback about Unified English Braille (UEB) through
>exposure to
>the Code, and will be asked to evaluate the Code in a variety of
>professional tasks.
>
>Candidates will complete an interview process prior to acceptance
>in the
>Project.  The Project will take place over a six month period and
>will
>include: one face-to-face meeting, teleconferences, and e-mail
>communications.  Travel expenses will be covered by the Project.
