Ok all.
I’ve taken it apon myself to write to the skype develpers expressing my sincere dissatisfaction with the newest skype beta and how the call menu has been taken away from us blind folks.
Here’s the email I posted to them below and i’ll keep you all informed on the progress of this very important issue.
Hi There.
Firstly i’d like to express my dissatisfaction with the latest beta 1.3.29 of skype.
I’m extreemly disappointed at the fact you have removed access to calling online contacts via the callmenu under alt c in skype.
Why are you guys taking away important functionality for blind users who use your produtt on a daily basis?
I know the eye candy is pretty and looks good for those with sight but taking away important features such as calling people via the call menu in my oppinion is a step backward.
Please can I urge you to put back the call menu as it is currently in version 1.2.48 and don’t make changes like these without consulting with us first?
I can’t understand why you would even think of removing the call menu and make your product harder for us blind folks to use.
I would appreciate a reply to my concerns listed above and I look forward to hearing from you asap.
Thanks for your time.
