[Accessibility] Confused about the whole blind osm process and things

[kwaggapro at vodamail.co.za]

Hi guys. I got no idea how to use these osm tools of yours. But i got my landmarks converted as text files for blind users. Now if u want them i can send them to you. But these landmarks are for south africa. And they are for the johannesburg area. Those people who want them for the loadstone gps program must let me know how to upload it for them or rather send me a email link so i can mail the files to them to be uploaded to the server. I dont have unlimeted internet access so if i can create maps off line and send it to you please let me know how and i'll do it with pleasure. I am going blind so i am going to need these maps myself anyway so why not share it with everyone who wants them? Just tell me how what and where. 
Regards Corrie.

Hello,

of course all help is needed, but there are not so many blind mappers
yet. You might need to consider your continent as your
neighbourhood. :-)

Here's how to:

Let me know if you get stuck.
