I’m happy to announce that I will be taking part in the 2014 edition of LibreOffice Conference as a speaker. I’ll overview the status of accessibility in our favorite productivity suite, starting with an introduction to accessibility support and how application are supposed to implement it, we will check the particular case of LibreOffice: which accessibility backends are implemented and how the architecture is designed to support multiple backends while maximizing code reuse.

The conference program looks hot too, and this time I’m particularly interested on hearing from the success cases that will be presented there, looking for ideas and lessons to apply to new deployments.

Igalia is one of the sponsors of the conference, taking our compromise with LibreOffice project a step further. The company will also be sponsoring my flight and stay in Bern.

Last but not least, it will be great to meet the community members again, and get to know those I haven’t met yet in previous conferences or hackfests. Looking forward to seeing you at Bern!

EDIT: get the slides here!
