This will make the About dialog more accessible to screen reader users. It was done for Firefox in bug 694266. These changes should be ported to Thunderbird.

Tell screen readers that this is a dialog, and put all relevant descriptive text into the dialog accessible's description so screen readers read the info automatically.

Thanks, Blake. ::: mail/base/content/aboutDialog.xul @@ +63,5 @@ > #else > title="&aboutDialog.title;" > #endif > + role="dialog" > + aria-describedby="version distribution distributionId currentChannelText communityDesc contributeDesc" So, why does Thunderbird get "currentChannelText", whereas Firefox gets "trademark"?

currentChannel is, if I didn't overlook it, not available in the Firefox version of the dialog. trademark has been added locally. Thanks for the catch!
