Is this group taking membership as of yet? Frank Ventura -----Original Message----- From: blind-sysadmins-bounces(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Bill Gallik Sent: Sunday, January 25, 2009 7:44 PM To: Blind sysadmins list Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] IAVICP Board of Directors Hi John, I am a (prematurely) retired software engineer who worked for 20 years for Bell Labs out of Naperville, IL. I now live in Superior, Wisconsin and am trying with very little success to find another computer related job. I would be quite interested in this group as well as possibly serving as a board member. ---*---*---*---*---*--- Sincerely, Bill Gallik E-Mail: BillGallik(a)centurytel.net No matter how much you push the envelope, it'll still be stationery. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John G. Heim" <jheim(a)math.wisc.edu> To: "Blind sysadmins list" <blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Sent: Sunday, January 25, 2009 1:48 PM Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] IAVICP Board of Directors All, After my latest call for opinions on forming a group for visually impaired computer professionals, I got a little bit more interest. So we have decided to proceed with formation of this organization. The purpose of the organization is threefold: 1. To serve as a source for information on adaptive techniques for visually impaired computer professionals. 2. To serve as a source for social networking for visually impaired computer professionals. 3. To serve as an advocate for visually impaired professionals. The first thing we need to do is form a board of directors. Anyone interested in serving on the board should email me at jheim(a)math.wisc.edu as soon as possible. You need not be an American to be on the board of directors. In fact, international interest is welcome. I have already contacted a lawyer about getting tax exempt status in the United States. We need to have a board of directors to get tax exempt status. We already have enough people to legally create a board of directors but I was hoping for 2 or 3 more people to bring the total to 5 or 6. _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org http://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/mailman/listinfo/blind-sysadmins _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org http://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/mailman/listinfo/blind-sysadmins No virus found in this incoming message.

Hello, Those of you that use remote desktop, have you ever encountered an issue, where your on a host that does have jfw, but a sighted machine has an issue, and they don't have jfw on it? In that case, how do you resolve the issue? Thanks. Dave. David Mehler (MCP,Network+,A+) dave.mehler(a)gmail.com

Hello, How accessible is true image with screen readers? And how usable is it, both for standard backups, as in backing up a machine, and doing bear metal restores independently of assistance. Thanks. Dave. David Mehler (MCP,Network+,A+) dave.mehler(a)gmail.com
