February East Side Meeting

[Steve Holmes]

Hi Eric,

I don't have the meeting outlined yet; that is, I don't have notes
compiled or any of that.  So far, I just have planned out what items
or areas of a11y I figure to cover and before this Thursday evening, I
will have some notes compiled that I will use to keep myself on track
and hopefully within reasonable time limits.  When I compose my notes
in emacs (org-mode) <smile>, I can perhaps pass that on to you for a
guide.  You might wish to cover things that are more familiar to
yourself though so not how sure the whole notes would help you that
much.  But I can dig up URLs and stuff like that as I may want to make
them available to the audience at the meeting and any future events.

I am not very good at presentations (I'm nervous about public speaking and I haven't really done much presentation before). I have some idea of the technologies I can touch on (braille, text to speech, magnification). I use TTS almost exclusively now. I haven't the funds to afford braille output tech here and magnification has been beyond my ability for 6 months.
