Sorry for missing the last meeting, just plain forgot.<br><br>btw, Puppy linux is currently at version 3.01. I'm currently running it from a USB stick. It also can be run in windows with QEMU-puppy, although only version 2.17 works with this. All 3.xx versions are based on Slackware 12 which should make installing new apps a doddle.<br><br>KDE accessibility isn't much cop at the moment, even the developers are admitting 4.0 won't enhance accessibility much. Gnomes Orca project is lightyears ahead I'm afraid at present. I subscribe to both mailing lists, KDEaccessibility might get a couple of posts a week, Orca has around a dozen a day...<br><br><div style="font-family: times new

Does<br>> this mean that I missed the meeting? If so, sorry I must check my
E-mails<br>> more often!<br>><br>Hi<br>We did have an SLG meeting on Monday 5th, but it was, as we said
before, a <br>social meeting at the Valley, not a learning meeting at the Resource
Centre, <br>which had to be postponed. It does not seem sane to start the new
meetings <br>in December, so the December meeting (Monday 3rd) will also be at the
Valley, <br>and the first of the learning meetings at the Resource Centre will be
on the <br>first practical Monday in January, the 8th.<br><br>David, I have been looking at Puppy Linux, and it looks like a good
place to <br>start. In particular, the new version 3.05 will handle Slackware
packages, <br>which will in theory make it easy to install kdeaccessibility. That
will <br>take us up to 3 distros. <br><br>In the Vista vs clay tablets debate, clay tablets were thought to win
on <br>grounds of longevity.<br><br><br><br>Bob<br><br></div><br></div></div></body></html>
