I haven't found any centralised documentation on accessibility in Fedora
yet (probably because all the desktop environments are sort of supposed
to have their own documentation upstream?).  I see that the
accessibility guide used to be part of the docs before, but hasn't been
there in recent releases:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/16/html-single/Accessibility_Guide/index.html)

I did find a wiki page that has some information, but it's quite out of date:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Accessibility

Would you like to write up some documentation pages on Orca and
Emacspeak, perhaps for the quick-docs to begin with?
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/

The sources are here:
https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/quick-docs

We follow the pull request model for new contributions, and there are
lots of folks around to help with writing and reviewing tasks.
