>Raised Dot Computing, Inc. was formed in July, 1984 by David Holladay and
>Caryn Navy. In September, 1998, the assets and liabilities of Raised Dot
>Computing were transfered into a new Wisconsin non-profit corporation called
>Braille Planet, headed by Greg Rosenberg. David Holladay and Caryn Navy are
>now part of the full time staff of Braille Planet, where they will
continue to
>do the work they have always done. If you have any concerns or questions
about
>the transition, feel free to contact Greg, David, or Caryn.
>
>For the record, here is the mission statement of Braille Planet: "In
>recognition of the critical importance of Braille to the self-determination
>and self-sufficiency of persons who are blind or visually impaired, the
>mission of Braille Planet, Inc., is to make the production and
distribution of
>Braille no more difficult than the production and distribution of any other
>form of printed material. Towards this end, Braille Planet, Inc., will
develop
>and support software products, provide on-line electronic Braille libraries,
>provide educational services, as well as produce and distribute materials
>relating to blindness issues."
