Thanks, Curtis. I signed.

Do you know of a comparable screen reader? I'm getting so tired of being nickeled and dimed with their maintenance agreements and upgrades.

I hope you are well.

Greetings:

The Open Braille API Initiative, the National Federation of the Blind 
in Computer Science, and Earle Harrison, President of Handy Tech 
North America have created and posted an online petition which 
expresses sharp opposition to Freedom Scientific's recently-announced 
Secure and Compatible Braille driver signing policy.  The petition is 
self explanatory.  If you wish to read the petition and possibly 
demonstrate your support, please point your browser to:

and express your view.

Thank you for your attention.

Yours sincerely,

Curtis Chong, President
National Federation of the Blind in Computer Science
