Subject: WebVisum extension for Firefox - review from Marco Zehe
To: dev-accessibility at lists.mozilla.org


This is a really interesting new Firefox extension, with tons of upside
 potential. But, it seems that it already can help visually impaired
 Firefox users!

 http://www.marcozehe.de/2008/07/03/review-of-the-webvisum-firefox-extension/

 I personally think it's something for people to try -- the Firefox
 extension is being made open source (but not the server code)> I
 encourage people to look into it. I'd like to see trust & privacy issues
 and spambot questions addressed on the website.

 Something to consider would be allowing heuristics or users to tag up
 web pages with live region or other WAI-ARIA hints. It might be worth
 looking at how it can be used or integrated with AxsJAX.
