I have worked with Second Life a little bit over the past year. There
is a Second Life Educators listserv that covers many topics dealing with
Second Life and I know they have asked accessibility questions to that
list in the past. I cannot locate the email series at this particular
time but I know there has been a series of inroads made to allow
students with disabilities to function in Second Life. I know there was
a discussion about using Dragon Naturally Speaking in Second Life and
someone offered up the following document to assist with that:

Beyond that I believe there is a group within Second Life that has put
together some things about assisting individuals with disabilities to
use Second Life. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
