Thought folks might like to know that a new README-Accessibility
accompanies the recent release of Fedora Core 3. While I've found a few
minor errors of detail, there appears to be a range of reasonable advice
for many different accessibility requirements. May I highlight one such?


In it's Accessibility README which ships with Fedora Core 3 (Heidelberg), Red
Hat Corporation endorses Speakup and the Speakup Modified's installation HOWTO.
Here's what they say:

"Red Hat recommends Speakup for blind users because it provides an audible
installation and is fully supported by the blind open source community."

Red Hat's Accessibility README is available at the following URL:
