Re: Concerns over VAX Port

Hi Zack, list,

It's great to hear that another OpenBSD user is interested in
accessibility options.  This is something I've been working at
and researching recently.  I made an OpenBSD port of Emacspeak,
but I hear that most people find it too complicated and
confusing, so now I'm working on trying to get Gnopernicus
ported to OpenBSD.  This is distasteful to me because it
requires a huge, bloated GUI desktop environment to run on and
I'm sure it wouldn't work for your VAX.  In any case..

Anyway, rambling aside... I'm just another enthusiast looking
for something to tinker with.  If you (or anyone else reading
this) would like to talk and work on ways to improve OpenBSD's
accessibility please email me.

As to your question about the VAX port, an amazing amount of
work has gone into it recently, so I doubt that it's going away
any time soon.  

There was a great article by Miod Vallat, a person who works on
it quite a bit, posted to undeadly.org a few weeks ago.  Here is
