Re: Microsoft C+AI accessibility team at CSUN
Hi,
Yeah I spoke to people about the combo box thing in Azure as well and this was fixed in some places but has got worse over the past months. I was going to push this forward again. I spend all my time in Azure these days and try and do as much as possible via ARM templates or CLI but on the occasion when I need to go into the GUI its frustrrating.
Andrew.

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.
