[games_access] Happy New Year + A.T.E. Arcade

[d. michelle hinn]

Happy New Year to all!

I have surgery Monday but I'm looking forward to spending some 
recovery time checking out the new projects -- an accessible SL 
sounds like a reason to download SL again! :)

PS -- In mid-January online SIG meetings will start up again. Let's 
make 2009 the year we really hit the scene with Accessibility and see 
some big changes!

Hope everyone is well!
Michelle
