Thanks for weighing in, we'll definitely keep the file.

One issue that has to wait for F8 is that this file is not localized or readily
able to be localized.  It's far too late in the cycle to do anything about that,
sorry.  To be honest, we didn't know who was interested in a11y in Fedora, so we
didn't know who to turn to for ideas.  Now that we know, we'll make up for lost
time. :)

For Fedora 7, we'll do this:

* I've pasted the file into this Wiki location; it's ugly but experience shows
we'll get more contributors this way than buried in CVS:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Accessibility

* Let's get any changes, such as what David offers, into that file, get it
vetted, and back out to CVS by the end of the week (11 May).

I tweaked the file in minor formatting ways so that it gives nice Wiki output. 
Please let us know if the ASCII formatting has to be in a specific style, such
as for a screen reader.  If so, we'll i) fix the formatting when converting back
from Wiki, and ii) make an XSL that outputs that format in the toolchain.

For Fedora 8, what I'd like to do is add a new beat for a11y, and have the
content pushed into the stand-alone file.  It is then in XML, meaning we can i)
get it translated using the existing toolchains, and ii) make it available for
XSLT or other tricks to convert it to machine-read audio, human-read audio,
braille, etc.
