6. How You Can Help

If you want to contribute to the development of Speech Dispatcher, we will be very happy if you do so. Please contact us on speechd@lists.freebsoft.org.

There is a short, definitively not exhaustive, list of how you can help us and other users.

Donate money: We are a non-profit organization and we can't work without funding. Brailcom, o.p.s. created Speech Dispatcher and speechd-up and also works on other projects to help blind and visually impaired users of computers (like speechd-el). We build on Free Software and GNU/Linux, because we believe this is the right way. But it won't be possible when we have no money. Currently, funding is the main limiting factor for us in developing more and better accessibility solutions. http://www.freebsoft.org/
Report bugs: Every user, even if he can't give us money and he is not a programmer, can help us very much by just using our software and telling us about the bugs and inconveniences he encounters. A good user community that reports bugs is a crucial part of development of a good Free Software package. We can't test our software under all circumstances and on all platforms, so each constructive bug report is highly appreciated. You can report bugs in SpeechD-Up on speechd@bugs.freebsoft.org.
Help us with project: Please look at http://www.freebsoft.org/ to find information about our projects. There is a plenty of work still to be done for the blind and visually impaired people to make their work with computers easier.
Spread a word about Speech Dispatcher and Free Software: You can help us, and the whole community around Free Software, just by telling your friends about the amazing world of Free Software. It doesn't have to be just about Speech Dispatcher, you can tell them about other project or about Free Software in general. Remember that Speech Dispatcher could only arise out of understanding of some people of the principles and ideas behind Free Software. And this is mostly the same for the rest of the Free Software world. See http://www.gnu.org/ for more information about GNU/Linux and Free Software.
