Subject: [Nfbnet-members-list] FW: recruiting beta testers for KNFB Reader

 

 
***
Greetings from the KNFB Reader team,
 
Once again, we are adding many more languages to KNFB Reader. In June of
this year, the grand total of languages available to KNFB Reader users
increased to nineteen.  With your help we may be adding as many as thirteen
in the near future.  A lucky number indeed. 
 
In this round of additions, there are several which have proven very
challenging.  Input from our valued beta testers will be needed to ensure
the best functionality for these new languages.  We need those familiar with
the following languages to volunteer to beta test the next version of KNFB
Reader.
 

Chinese (both Simplified and Traditional)
Afrikaans
Albanian
Croatian
Icelandic
Indonesian
Japanese
Korean
Romanian
Serbian
Slovak
Slovenian
 
If you are interested in participating, send a message to
support at knfbreader.com.  Include the following:
 
Your Name
Your location
The language/s you can test
Your email address
The make and model of device you are using
The version of the operating system you are currently running
Do you already own KNFB Reader.
Do you use either TalkBack or VoiceOver?
On a scale of 1-5, please rate your level of proficiency with your device.
Please note that we want to find users of all skill levels.
 
Please spread this message far and wide.  Many of these languages may not be
commonly spoken in your area.  If you know of anyone who may be interested
in helping with this project, please do not hesitate to recruit them.
Language testers do not need to be blind.  Ask your friends, family members
and coworkers who may speak any of these languages. 
 
Thank you again for your interest in improving KNFB Reader.  We could not do
it without you. 
 
Regards,
 
Joel

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds
