Re: Microsoft C+AI accessibility team at CSUN
Ryan, Just putting an idea out there. How about your team pays for me to go over there to show you what's happening day to day from the perspective of a blind system administrator? Combo boxes in Azure haven't been properly accessible in over a year. How has that gone on for so long? Instead of moaning about this stuff, I would really like to understand what the problems are that they encounter so that we can meet somewhere in the middle. I have some great contacts in Microsoft in both Ireland and across the EU. If more resources are needed, I could possibly get hold of the right ears. But really, don't discount my suggestion. I'm working in azure a lot and it looks like my employer is leaning in that direction over AWS or other cloud platforms. If my employer leans that direction, it's very likely that more organizations of this type will move too. I'm not blowing my own trumpet here but I'm the person that's going to be the deciding factor. Microsoft Ireland would absolutely love our business. But If I can't even select my region when creating a VM in the web UI then I'm not exactly jumping for joy every time Azure is mentioned. Azure committed spend this year has plenty of zeros. -----Original Message----- From: Ryan Shugart via Blind-sysadmins <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Sent: Tuesday 22 January 2019 19:58 To: Blind sysadmins list <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Cc: Ryan Shugart <ryshugar@microsoft.com> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Microsoft C+AI accessibility team at CSUN Hi everyone: I wanted to let you know that just as we have been for the past few years, the Microsoft Cloud+AI accessibility team will be at CSUN and would be interested in chatting with any other CSUN attendees who use our products on a regular basis with assistive technologies, or who train/work with those who do.
