[bksvol-discuss] Fw: [Nfbmn-news] Opposing Freedom Scientific's signed Braille DriverInitiative

Hi braille readers!

A friend forwarded this to me a while back, but I'm just seeing it tonight,

because both she and I are sending a good number of messages to each other,

so we sometimes get behind, but both of us understand, so it isn't a big

deal to either of us.

I imagine many of you probably saw something like this already, but there

are always new list members. After reading, you can decide whether you'd

like to sign the petition.

Greetings:

The Open Braille API Initiative, the National Federation of the Blind in

Computer Science, and Earle Harrison, President of Handy Tech North

America have created and posted an online petition which expresses sharp

opposition to Freedom Scientific's recently-announced Secure and

Compatible Braille driver signing policy. The petition is self

explanatory. If you wish to read the petition and possibly demonstrate

your support, please point your browser to:

http://www.petitiononline.com/brl4all/petition.html

and express your view.

Thank you for your attention.

Yours sincerely,

Curtis Chong, President
National Federation of the Blind in Computer Science

Enjoy what you have rather than desiring what you don't have. Just dreaming

about nice things is meaningless; it is like chasing the

wind.--Ecclesiastes 6:9 NLT
