The program is almost 100% ready to be center to the printer. I can send it to you tomorrow, if you would like.

Hi all, I sent this message to the Wikimania info email last week but haven't yet received a reply. Regards, Graham -------- Original Message -------- Subject: braille copy of program Date: Sun, 17 Jun 2012 17:02:53 +0800 From: Graham Pearce <grahamwp@jazi.net> <mailto:grahamwp@jazi.net> To: wikimania-info@wikimedia.org <mailto:wikimania-info@wikimedia.org> Hello, I'm User:Graham87 on Wikipedia, and as it says on my user page there, I'm totally blind: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Graham87 I'll be attending Wikimania this year as one of the representatives of Wikimedia Australia. I'd like a braille copy of the printed program, so I can follow along with it like everybody else. Converting computer files into braille is not a difficult process, but it does require specialised (and ridiculously expensive!) equipment to emboss the braille dots and bind the books, so braille production agencies like people to submit material to them some time in advance (generally about a week). When will the program be in its final form, so it can be sent somewhere to be brailled? I can think of a couple of ways of doing this: *If the program will be ready by Tuesday week (the 27th of June), I can send it to my local Association for the Blind and they can braille it at no cost to me. The date gives them about a week's notice while I can still pick it up (I'll be leaving on the 5th of July). *If it'll be ready after then, could you arrange for it to be brailled by a place in Washington DC? The Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind sounds like as good a place as any: http://www.clb.org/braille-production It will cost some money if it's done this way, however, but I have no idea how much. Thanks!
