Hi all,

I agree that we need to have a website or a wiki, which ever is preferable. But this particular wiki should contain information from both blindmath as well as NFB-Science mailing lists. 

I also think that we need to focus on 2 main areas that should be included in this wiki. 
1. Software and Hardware that make math and science accessible. For example: MathTrax, DeepView, Iveo, ChattyInfty, etc.
This category should also include scripts or programs that make mainstream software accessible.

2. Accessible Math websites on the web.
In my mind, this category consists of
a. Sites having LaTeX alt tags.
b. Sites with MathML pages.
c. Sites that host TeX/ LaTeX sources of free online material.

Regards
Roopakshi from India
