[games_access] games_access Digest, Vol 79, Issue 16

Hi

I have used Google groups; it is OK but G have made it a bit less easy to use since they removed file upload; instead you can use Google Sites or Code for that of course

Also, while there are shared documents in Groups, Google Docs is a better solution for that

Hence, I would vote for using Google Sites for web prescence in general, and Docs for shared document editing. For peer communication we already have this list

Kind regards,
Thomas

I don't know the specifics because I have no experience with Google Groups but figure I'd suggest that just in case.

Peace & God bless you all, Amen.

Hi,

do we have one contact email address for people who have questions,
but do not want to join the email list?

Do we have subgroups?
<http://www.igda.org/accessibility>http://www.igda.org/accessibility
It looks like that we have two subgroups:
One for "Gamers with Disabilities" and "Parents of Children with
Disabilities"

Best regards,
Sandra

yes -- it's <mailto:accessibility at igda.org> accessibility at igda.org<mailto:accessibility at igda.org>

we've been having trouble with the website -- we've had more subgroups and that's something that would be good for the new steering committee to discuss (and those running to discuss their ideas here for voters). i cannot access the website to add anything, nor can barrie and many others. i've asked that the igda look into this many times but i've kind of lost steam on that because we never get any resolution. i know other sigs are also having trouble.

past subgroups have included "research" "game development" "industry relations" etc

due to health concerns, i am not going to run at all -- but i will still be serving as chair emeritus to help the new committee understand about the sig past and what contacts and resources we have. my immune system has crashed and that causes all my joints to seize up when that happens. :(

Hi,

thanks for the information Michelle,

Can we still use and edit this wiki?
<http://wiki.igda.org/Game_Accessibility_SIG>http://wiki.igda.org/Game_Accessibility_SIG

Maybe we can update it step by step, after the selection?

Best regards,
Sandra
