The open source code for our most popular student project from previous SS12s has been moved to our Project Possibility organisation on GitHub. This move was triggered by Google’s announcement that it will be closing Google Code whic his our current project hosting. However, GitHub is a great place to be, both in terms of popularity and service features. Here are the projects and their repositories on GitHub.

• Lunar Tabs (Desktop)
• Lunar Tabs (Android)
• Lunar Tuner
• Word Predictor
• Orbit Binary Input Game

With the US 2015 SS12: Code for a Cause series quickly approaching, we are gathering project ideas for our students to work on. Is there is an AT software program you would like to see developed? Or does someone you know have a great idea for an accessibility mobile app? No matter what the case it, we’d love to hear from you.

If you have any ideas for open source AT software that you would like to see developed, share them with us.

More information will follow in the coming months about the SS12 we have planned at other universities in the US and Europe. If you’d like to get involved at any of our upcoming events, get in touch with us at: info@projectpossibility.org

We look forward to seeing you at the SS12 soon. Happy holidays!
