Congratulations to the new user group! It's great to have a clear
destination to refer people to, on matters of vision-impaired use of and
contribution to the Wikimedia projects.
(I think it would be helpful, for this and other recent groups, to ensure
that the designated contacts for the group are clearly identified on the
group's Meta page. People shouldn't have to guess how to make contact with
the group, and shouldn't just assume the first few names in the members
list are the designated contacts.)
Cheers,
A.
