New Suggestion raised for accessibility of Atlassian HipChat desktop client
Hey all, I love this thing (I actually use it for personal tech projects; wish it were used at my job) though it's got some major accessibility issues; namely that the desktop client works with neither JAWS nor NVDA, and in the wweb client,, you can't make one to one video calls unless using JAWS for some stupid reason. The following link needs some more votes in order to get it raised in importance. I figured I could get some support from the awesome folks here. I'll be sending this around to other places, and it's out on Twitter as well: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/HCPUB-3262 <http://support-mail-links.atlassian.com/track/click/11828703/jira.atlassian .com?p=eyJzIjoiWnJIbE1jcFVGSzFickJrWFJkVkVvUkMwc3FZIiwidiI6MSwicCI6IntcInVcI joxMTgyODcwMyxcInZcIjoxLFwidXJsXCI6XCJodHRwczpcXFwvXFxcL2ppcmEuYXRsYXNzaWFuL mNvbVxcXC9icm93c2VcXFwvSENQVUItMzI2MlwiLFwiaWRcIjpcImMzNTk5MGY5MDZjYjQzMzZiZ DdiOTc4NjBmYzkwYzFmXCIsXCJ1cmxfaWRzXCI6W1wiNWVjODVhOGQwZGE2ZDMzMTNjYmUxNTFlN mIwN2YyY2ExODY1ZmE1ZlwiXX0ifQ> Thanks, guys.
I wouldn't waste my time and energy on these people.
I discussed this topic at length with a fella there called Jason. He promised the sun moon and stars and didn't deliver on anything. This went on for about a year.
They have 0 interest in accessibility. Their Confluence product is also a huge steaming pile of ***** In terms of accessibility. The content area isn't accessible enough to get any work done. Again, I have clearly communicated this to them but they are completely uninterested in making it work better.

Interesting. That isn't seemingly the attitude I received. The gentleman
helping us actually took the time to explore NVDA and how it worked from
what I could glean. Thanks for the heads up though.
