Today a possible Outreachy proposal about making the Guix System installer
accessible came up on IRC. Should someone be willing to mentor for that
project, please let me know.

Best regards,
g_bor

Hello Gábor,

I'd be glad to mentor this project. However, I have no experience in
developing accessibility features. Would someone with some knowledge on
that point be willing to help me?

Thanks,

Mathieu

Julien (Cc’d) looked a bit into it during the Guile/Guix Days in
Strasbourg this summer, perhaps they can give you pointers.

If needed, we can also ask Samuel Thibault, the jack-of-all-trades when
it comes to accessibility, for useful pointers and for advice.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Unfortuntely I missed you earlier mail, sorry about that.

Now it is a bit too late to get this in shape.
I would recommend to create a group page on libreplanet, and
make this a proposal for the next round. Also, there was another
proposal to measure the CI performance. That could also go there as well.
Wdyt?

I've looked a bit at accessibility features anl know people who benefit from them, but I've actually never developped or integrated such technologies before. I'm willing to help in next round though.
