Some things definitely need improvement - simple inaccuracies like talking about gnopernicus, outdated screenshots of GNOME 2.4, the photo of my brother & the family (perhaps too personal for a stock presentation), and the presentation needs a narrative - I've attached my notes from the presentation below to give you an idea, it's a good 45 minutes to 1 hour long presentation. I also have a French translation. The core goal of the presentation is to show that accessibility is important because of the people we help. It's important not because having a certain level of conformance with standards opens the door to government contracts, or as a selling point for the software, but because it helps users & developers, sometimes (like through Strongwind, Dogtail and LDTP) in unexpected ways. The presentation is too big to send to the list, so I've put it on a website - you can get it at: http://dneary.free.fr/Presentations/Digital ramps and handrails.pdf (versions in .ppt and .odp will also be there, but perhaps with missing bitmaps, etc). The general thrust of the presentation is: * We use computers with standard input & output devices - a mouse, a keyboard, a screen. * But that doesn't cover all use-cases. Blind people can't see screens. People with degenerative motor illness can't use mice or keyboards. Old people with "normal" illnesses like arthritis and vision impairments can't easily use all this stuff either. And kids (and parents holding babies ;) also have trouble with these devices which require sophisticated hand-eye co-ordination * There are other hardware inputs & outputs that can help: * Joysticks instead of mice * Drawing tablets * Braille keyboards * Audio input & output (speech synthesis, audio signals, speech recognition for commands) * A whole range of things like accelerometers, championned by the iPhone and the Wii, and in general the whole range of video game controls which make you think differently abut interracting with a computer * More specialised: eye trackers that can use eye movement and blink patterns to command * And finally, software to make things easlier * Here's where GNOME fits in * Project founded on the principle of universal access - making computer technology available to anyone, not just geeks, regardless of culture, technical or physical ability - in 3 main ways: consistent, usable, learnable user interfaces; internationalised and localised applications (chance to explain the difference between internationalised ("take out all local assumptions") and localised ("add back in all the local constraints for many cultures")); work on accessibility (a nod to Sun Microsystems and IBM, who have been long-time champions of this). The rest of the presentation is a demo of various accessibility features in GNOME. I discovered several quirks & bugs while doing the demos :-} The demos split into 2/3 parts: 1. General GNOME features which are useful to people with handicaps 2. Accessibility features available to all GNOME applications, regardless of the desktop configuration 3. Features that depend on AT-SPI being activated, and which can be considered "advanced" accessibility tools * Keyboard shortcuts: the entire GNOME desktop is available through use of only the keyboard. Remove mouse, start demo: Basics: 1. Switch applications (Alt-Tab) 2. Choose panel (Ctrl-Alt-Tab) - open a new application through panel (BUG #542325: When you open a menu while navigating with the keyboard, you cannot again navigate with the keyboard until you click somewhere with the mouse) 3. Alt- to navigate menus of an application 4. Tab, Shift-Tab to navigate through interface elements in an application (including web application) (would be nice to show navigation to toolbar, but I can't figure out how to do it) 5. Each application has a set of short-cuts - show that standard shortcuts are used across all applications to make it easier for users of a new application. * Themes 1. Show high contrast themes, and explain how they help colorblind or visually impaired users. 2. Show configurability of things like font sizes * Audio 1. Black screen represents what a blind person sees when turning on their computer. Ask the crowd: "it takes 30s to 2 mins to boot a computer - how does the user know when they can log in?" There's an audio signal emitted when GDM is ready to rock which serves that purpose. 2. Show audio events config * Sticky keys 1. Explain: You can press one key at a time, and still do Alt-F or Alt-Tab. Useful if you have a baby in your lap, or any range of physical disabilities that makes chording difficult. 2. Activate, and do Alt Tab, Ctrl S, Alt Shift Tab, etc. (NOTE: I discovered after the presentation to do something like "cycle through application windows", you need to hit Alt-Alt to get the Alt key to stay "stuck" while you tab through the windows. To unstick it, hit Alt again) * Slow keys 1. Explain: Allows you to specify a minimum time a key must be pressed to register a keypress (A11y guys: I found this to be more annoying than anything else. Can you give me a usecase where this would be useful?) 2. Demonstrate. * Bounce keys (NOTE: I didn't show or explain this): 1. Explain: Bounce keys has only the first tap of rapid repeat presses register. Useful for people with conditions such as Parkinsons who have trembling hands and poorer co-ordination 2. Demonstrate * Dasher 1. Launch the application, and give a demo (it's useful to have a sentence you know you want to write prepared) 2. Most people won't understand what they're seeing; Explain: Dasher allows you to write text by driving a pointer through the alphabet, letter sizes are bigger/smaller depending on the relative probability that they'll be next in the word you're writing, training text allows the application to set the probabilities (BUGs: Dasher on Ubuntu (and on Linux in general) appears to have a number of bugs around choosing the alphabet (application crashes), importing training texts (app crashes) and in at least Edgy Eft, writing text (app stopped after about 20 letters). Also, on Linux, I don't know how to send the text to another window.) 3. Invite someone from the audience to come up & give it a go, and while they're writing, explain the letter sizes and use cases where this is useful (eye tracker, joystick, etc.) !! From here, AT-SPI needs to be activated (it's also useful for Dasher) * Mouse Tweaks 1. Explain: Mouse Tweaks allows you to click the mouse without clicking it, or to emulate a right-button click with just the left button (yes! All you one-button Mac users can open contextual menus now without going to the keyboard!) 2. Demonstrate delay-click: Click & hold to raise a right-click contextual menu 3. Demonstrate dwell-click: Leave the mouse steady for a second, and when the pointer changes, move up, down, left, right to get single, double, right click or click & drag functionality * Orca 1. Explain: A screen reader, which hooks into several voice engines, and braille displays, and a screen magnifier 2. Demonstrate screen reader (works best when hooked into sound system): * Open pre-edited document in gedit, read it with Orca * Navigate using keyboard * Type a sentence in gedit * Read a PDF document in Evince * Navigate the web (extra brownie points if you can find a page with awful accessibility, and say "this is what the web looks like to a blind person" - no harm underlining that web accessibility is important) 3. Demonstrate Screen magnifier (very quick, turn it on, show what it does) * GNOME Onscreen keyboard 1. Sad confession: I never figured out how to use this, and so I showed screenshots. Every time I try to turn on GOK, I end up losing control of my mouse (something to do with a secondary mouse pointer not being available, so he disables my primary one) and a modal dialog comes up that I can't easily dismiss. 2. Explain that the GOK allows more than just typing letters, you can configure it to type words, menu items, adapts to the screen context (modal dialogs, file dialogs, different applications, etc) I'd love to be able to demo this on my laptop, if someone could show me how :) * Braille keypoard support - obviously I didn't demo this, but spoke about how Braille type 2 support was recently added, allowing Braille typists to chord more complex words more easily now. I hope I understood this properly :) * Convenient side effects In general, when people think about a11y features, they think about stuff useful only to people with disabilities. At the start I tried to explain that it's not just people with disabilities that benefit from things like ramps and kerbcuts, they also help people with push-chairs, shopping trollies, old people and children. Similarly, a11y features for the computer don't just help people with disabilities (in the classical sense) - high-contrast themes also help older people, sticky keys also help dads with babies (Federico Mena wrote a blog entry about this by the way, and it echos my personal experiences, which is why I keep bringing it up). Making websites accessible, for example, also makes them more useful in space-constrained environments like cellphones, which are increasingly used as web browsing devices by people without a disability. Finally, AT-SPI makes your applications GUI scriptable - allowing the creating of automated testing frameworks like Accerciser, Strongwind, LDTP and Dogtail. These applications weren't the primary motivation behind it, but a nice useful side-effect. Thanks!

I need to ramp back up on this stuff soon as well since I will be doing a few presentations in the coming months. I'm more than willing to put my stuff under some sort of public repository somewhere. I'd prefer something that makes it really really easy for me to upload docs and also really easy obtain them. What do you think about making some sort of gnome-marketing module in GNOME svn where we could be somewhat free about uploading and grabbing things? Will PS - We also have some money left over in the GNOME Outreach Program: Accessibility budget. I was thinking about trying to create a task for someone to create a bunch of short screencast videos of the assistive technologies in action (i.e., here's theming, here's stickykeys, here's bouncekeys, here's GOK in dwell mode, here's Dasher, here's MouseTweaks, here's Orca, etc.). What do you think about that?

Right now we were using the wiki, but for presentations & screencasts, that just seems wrong.

What do you think about that? I think this is a wonderful idea! And an excellent way to get some non-technical contributions.

Gail simply calls GTK_WIDGET_CAN_FOCUS, which checks a flag that is set true for a button when it is being constructed. Does anyone have an opinion as to whether or not this behavior is correct? I'm considering filing a bug but don't really know whether it should even be considered a bug.

There's FOCUSABLE, ENABLED, and SENSITIVE. If I understand them correctly: 1) SENSITIVE means whether it's grayed or not 2) ENABLED means that if you can interact with it, it will actually do something (versus just being a button you can tab to and press, but it does nothing) 3) FOCUSABLE means it can accept keyboard focus. As with VISIBLE and SHOWING, these can be very confusing states to understand. In any case, I guess I'd argue that if something is not SENSISTIVE, then it is not FOCUSABLE. That is, unless you can actually tab to it.

The target audience currently is unfortunately only for sighted people who can hear (sorry - it's my first real experiment with recordmydesktop), and these are geared more towards the short "elevator pitch" demo that you'd give at a talk rather than intending to be a complete tutorial. http://master.gnome.org/~wwalker/dwell-click.avi http://master.gnome.org/~wwalker/theming.avi http://master.gnome.org/~wwalker/keyboard-enhancements.avi http://master.gnome.org/~wwalker/enable-a11y.avi I'm kind of proud of the creative use of the cheese application in the keyboard-enhancements video. ;-) These were just quick unscripted demos that I rattled off kind of fast, so there's definitely room for improvement. I wish, for example, I knew how to edit/splice things so I didn't have to do them in one take. Let me know what you think. If you like them, I can do more for GOK, Dasher, and Orca. I can also redo these make them a little more professional if people think these are useful. Remember, these are just for giving you an idea of what's available and not meant to be instructional videos.
