All,

I would like to inform you of the creation of a new organization tentatively 
called The International Association of Visually Impaired Computer 
Professionals. The purpose of the organization is threefold:
1. To serve as a source for information on adaptive techniques for visually 
impaired computer professionals.
2. To serve as a source for social networking for visually impaired computer 
professionals.
3. To serve as an advocate for visually impaired computer professionals.

A Board of Directors for this organization is being formed now. Anyone 
interested in being on the board should contact me as soon as possible at 
jheim at math.wisc.edu.

We are in the process of establishing tax exempt status for our group under 
the laws of the United States. However, members of the Board of Directors 
need not be Americans. In fact, we'd prefer to have an international Board 
of Directors.

Please direct questions to me at jheim at math.wisc.edu. And please feel free 
to forward this message to anyone who might be interested.
