WG-92-04: (SI-TWG) --- Special Interest TWG

Title: TeX for the Disabled

Mandate: The primary purpose of this working group is as a forum
for those people interested in using and/or enhancing TeX to serve the needs
of the disabled.

Technical Working Group Chair: T.V. Raman (raman@cs.cornell.edu)

Technical Council Liason: Michael Ferguson

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The annual TUG meeting held in Portland at the end of July 92
decided to form a special interest working group to address  the
possible advantages in using TeX to make documents more accessible to
the disabled.

I would like to invite people interested in this area to join this
group at this time.  In the initial phase, I see a need to gather
information about any relevant  ongoing work in this area.

To give a taste of what I mean by ongoing work, I found a Braille.sty
and Braille.tfm while wandering around the European archives, and so I
feel that there might be others out there who have already addressed
some of the questions.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

--Raman
