Nancy and all:


The current and most mature version of that project is now called Libre
Office, www.libreoffice.org.


Version 6 was just introduced earlier in the week. I do know that some 
work has been taking place to make it work with NVDA. I don't know about 
JAWS.


Jim Gamage in the UK has created many articles demonstrating using Libre 
Office with NVDA. They can be found at talkingcomputers.org.uk.


I have a friend who is a publisher and it is his only office suite, and 
he has absolutely no issues with MS Word compatibility.


Best,


Brad

I have a client who has been using it and is moving to nonvisual techniques.
Thanks.
