Hi All,<br><br>Here is my experience with Google's accessibility support and how they announce changes to the public.<br><br>1. The accessibility team working at Google is very dedicated to making Google Apps accessible, and in the end, we are all working and hoping for the same thing - that everyone can use Google Apps. I believe the accessibility team has a very difficult path to forge within the company to make it happen, not unlike many of the battles we have to fight on campuses to change cultures and mindsets. I applaud and am grateful of the work they have done to date, because they have done a lot, but we're not there yet and so we each have a role to play in this drama - we have to hold their feet to the fire, yet at the same time cheer them on.<br>
<br>2. Most of the Google Apps are, in my opinion, not too complex to be used with JAWS and other screen readers. For the most part, Google has chosen to implement most of its screen reader support through ChromeVox, and has done so in ways that other screen readers cannot take advantage of. They will say (quite often) that the problem of accessibility for complex Web apps has not been solved by anyone and they are working to solve it. I will grant them that Google Docs would require so much advanced ARIA support in screen readers that it might be impractical at this point to get equitable functionality in all screen readers, but for applications like GMail and Calendar, I don't accept that argument. Those interfaces are much simpler and could be much more accessible to JAWS, VoiceOver, and others.<br>
<br>3. Like I said, Google is definitely pushing towards a ChromeVox solution for screen reader support and considering other screen readers after the fact. ChromeVox interacts with Web applications in some fundamentally different ways than traditional screen readers. There are times, I believe, that the Google Apps are sending ChromeVox specific statements to say at certain points. This is fundamentally different behavior than every other Web application on the Internet and every other screen reader. It basically means Google Apps are being designed to work with a particular technology, not being designed to an accepted standard. (You might think well, with ARIA live regions I can send a statement to JAWS to announce. Yes, you can, but it's still because JAWS chooses to say it. ChromeVox support in these areas is more akin to calling an API function in ChromeVox to announce something, most likely being done through a JavaScript call. Last time I checked, JAWS didn't have an API available to Web applications.) Maybe it's time for some shakeup in the screen reader industry and how screen readers are supposed to work, but
ChromeVox is definitely not ready for prime time production use.<br>
<br>4. Google does not announce a lot of accessibility changes. If they use the Accessibility Google Group to make minor announcements, I've missed most of them. I've seen a few references to people posting a bug to the list and a developer making a comment that it will be fixed soon, but those instances are fairly rare. I did a quick skim of the messages back to Dec 1, 2011 and I didn't see any threads started by Google announcing any improvements to Google Apps. In fact, their most recent blog posting (<a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2012/02/understanding-accessibility-at-csun.html">http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2012/02/understanding-accessibility-at-csun.html</a>) still only references their accessibility improvements from last September (<a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/09/enhanced-accessibility-in-docs-sites.html">http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/09/enhanced-accessibility-in-docs-sites.html</a>). That is the only accessibility announcement I have seen from Google regading Google Apps in the last 6 months.<br>
<br>5. I know they are working on things and making them better. At CSUN, when Hadi and I were presenting on Google Apps Accessibility a Google Docs developer was in the audience and I learned that about a week after our October accessibility report on Docs he had fixed one of the bugs we reported. (It was regarding screen reader users escaping out of modal windows in Docs). I'm very glad it's fixed, but that's the first I had heard about it. Communication about improvements is simply non-existent.<br>
