Hi
@jared: Will you guys take extra care to make sure this new tool will
be accessible for SR users? There were problems with the Wave toolbar
I know, I have tried the online version of the new Wave v5 and am very
happy with it, will try toolbar this week.

@tony (or anyone who knows): how accessible is Worldspace with a
screen reader (Fire Eyes works, or some aspect of it, I have some
small issues with others, but I have only tried it for a relatively
short time).

Thanks
-Birkir
