Hello all.

I've just added the below ticket to the virtualbox bug tracker. If
anyone here wants to see the virtualbox GUI accessible under
windows/linux/macos/whatever platforms vbox runs on in the future, I
would encourage you to register on the virtualbox.org site, which is
quick and painless, and make your voice heard, by adding onto this
ticket, or via whatever means you feel is appropriate.

Greg

 This issue has already been discussed on the vbox-users mailing list:

 http://vbox.innotek.de/pipermail/vbox-users/2007-July/001803.html
 http://vbox.innotek.de/pipermail/vbox-users/2007-August/001978.html
 http://vbox.innotek.de/pipermail/vbox-users/2007-July/001834.html

 Dmitry from innotek has already said that time would be invested into this
 issue, but I didn't see that a ticket was created for it, and thought it
 would be a good idea to create one,
 so that this problem isn't put aside and forgotten.

 An ideal solution if possible, would be access via screen readers to the
 vbox
 GUI on all supported platforms, (I.E. windows, linux, macos, ETC.).
