Hello Kovid,
I receive today e-mail of a blind person who asks to me whether it would be possible to adapt calibre for their specific handicap.
Perhaps does there exist already solutions to be proposed to these people?
Here a translated copy from french of this e-mail:

Hello,
By this e-mail I see that you seem to be able to communicate with the author of calibre… Could you then announce to him that this software which however appears excellent is completely inaccessible to equipment of adaptation for blinds (such JAWS of freedom scientific or NVDA) even if some shortcuts keyboard can sometimes make accept an accessibility which appears with the unusable use in fact.
I spent much time personally helped by a friend of this list to try to use them without practically any success.
This is strong damage because the ebooks are now for the blinds one of the best sources of possible reading, and they have like you problems of ranking, conversion, renaming, etc
I thank you by advance
Bernard
