Blind vs. mainstream distros

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hi Lars,

Our focus is usually on keeping things very low-cost, in order to get 
great technology into the hands of the blind in developing countries. 
Since Braille displays are so expensive, we have not done |Braille in 
the past.

But we could change this if we could get contributors who care about 
Braille display accessibility who could help us with that aspect of the 
project.

Any chance you could help us with Braille?
