Slightly Offtopic: Does anyone use/know of a system for "no eyes" (blind) programming? Does anyone know any blind developers?

  I think blind programmers mostly just use ASCII braille, with standard accessibility equipment like braillers, braille notetakers, and screenreaders.

  The Debian project has multiple blind developers. One serves on the Debian Technical Committee. Useful packages include brltty (for Braille terminals), emacspeak, and orca.
