Hi Craig,

I don't know if my message is anyhow relevant to you. I have been
working for several months on a minimal live iso of Devuan (yes,
Devuan http://www.devuan.org -- the fork of Debian without systemd)
with a special focus on accessibility.

The distro has only cli and curses utilities (no X11), and has been
tested at different stages by several people in the Speakup mailing
list, who have provided valuable feedback. If you are interested, you
can find the images and more information at:

Again, please accept my apologies if this is not relevant to you. I
would appreciate any feedback you might want to provide :)

Best Regards

KatolaZ
