[Qgis-community-team] Weblate, experience?

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Richard,

One thing to check is if the Weblate interface has good support for the 
blind - this morning I read a recent thread regarding someone trying 
hard to contribute to Transifex translations but the interface does not 
support those who are blind.

Something to check into if you are researching best options.

(background: for MapServer we also rely strongly on Transifex, so I 
thought this recent feedback was interesting)
