[BlindMath] Current strategies regarding accessible mathematics

[prayner at unimelb.edu.au]

I've forgotten the technical detail but, at least for interacting with
linux and orca, the overleaf accessibility problem sounded very hard>
I think the standard text-editing widgets weren't performant enough
for their needs. There is a usable alternative. You can treat each
overleaf project as a git repository, clone it, work off line in your
favourite editor then push things back. Not perfect but it has worked
for the last twenty or so papers I've written with students. How is
maths handled in the google suite? Its accessibility is unreliable
while overleaf is reliably bad.
