This is really wonderful news.
I also longed to use Gnome, although mate perfectly suits me.
But this is really great.
Open Source is a great thing and has a huge advantage over proprietary stuff in terms of growth and diverse ideas.
But at the end of the day it comes down to dedicated payed work which is of utmost importance for non-stop progress.
I am happy to observe that for last few years people have not just been payed for the great work they do in Open Source, but also in particular for accessibility on Linux based distrobutions.
I am thinking of trying Gnome soon now.
Oh, that's done? That's really good, I'll have to check it out. I really hope we can get to the Fedora installer though, so that one can install with Orca without having to log out, then log back in to X11 or something, and have ESpeak-ng on the live image and installed, instead of the older ESpeak.

I am the one talked about by the article. :-) So, yes, that were my words. The gnome-settings-center work is now basically done, the Gnome 42 release had fixed almost all the issues and only a handful of missing labels, a11y relations, etc. remained. Much interesting work will bw, for example, fixing the currently unusable Gnome calendar.
Regards,
Lukáš

Hi all. I get Google Alerts for stuff like "Linux accessibility," "Android 13," and that kind of stuff. So today, I got an article from ItsFoss about this, and decided to paste the link to the original article, from Fedora Magazine.
Honestly, it sounds like this person knows what's good and what isn't about Gnome, so hopefully we see improvements, especially in the settings center.
