[OSM-np] OSM and people with disability?

[Hempal Shrestha]

Deear Bibek,

Yeah this is what I was looking forward for. Also, I found this as well on
this topic after I wrote this email to the group:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/List_of_OSM_based_Services#Accessibility_for_persons_with_disabilities

Think should be good for our knowledge base as well

With kind regards

Hempal Shrestha
