   Segnalo questo articolo da International Herald Tribune di ieri:

   “Software that opens worlds to the disabled”
   http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/12/18/technology/18software.php

   dove si parla di un concorso californiano per favorire lo sviluppo delle possibilità ai diversamente abili attraverso le ultime tecnologie software.

   Ho avuto ieri sera un’interscambio sul gruppo Open Source di LinkedIn con William Myhill (Senior Research Associate & Adjunct Professor of Law at Syracuse University) il quale aveva aperto una discussione sul tema seguente:

   *Designing for Accessibility*
   < >

   Ho citato alcune esperienze di ISF e ne è rimasto interessato:

   Subject RE: Designing for Accessibility

   Group: Open Source

   Hello All,
   as volunteers of Italian Computer Scientist without Frontiers (ISF) we have recently sent a laptop with Thunder free screen-reader for XP http://www.screenreader.net/index.php?pageid=13&section=Thunder%20and%20Manuals
   to Kenya to Turu, a special person whose story is here:
   http://www.informaticisenzafrontiere.org/viewen.php?id=71

   Now Turu teaches to children who are little patients in Sololo Hospital and can read documents and e-mail without problems.

   I share this in case could be of help for a quick startup.

   in case you should be interested I have further qualified (more than I am) contacts to supply to you in case of interest on the subject:
   - In Italy we have a specialized NGO: ASPHI http://www.asphi.it/english/HomePage.htm very active in developing of Projects to reduce a handicap by means of Information Technology
   - Handimatica 2008 is ASPHI’s national event closed just a few days ago:
   http://www.handimatica.it/Handi2008/English2008/Handimatica2008.htm
   If you have particular topics of interest I can contact them and a friend who is Prof. at Turin Politecnic who attended the event this year.
   As a final item, in ISF our volunteers IT association
   http://www.informaticisenzafrontiere.org/viewen.php?id=9
   we have an expert who is equipping a van with special technology aids for delivery to different able people I can get details in case.
   WKR,
   Aldo
