Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] adding accessibility information to the qt gui.

Hello. I'm new to wireshark, and new to open source development. I'm a
third-year software engineering student who relies on a screenreader.

I recently started using wireshark, because I'll need it for one of my
university courses this summer, but my screenreader cannot adequately
convey enough information to me to allow me to use it effectively. To
try to solve this, I've cloned the git repository, and am attempting
to add enough information in the qt source to allow my screenreader to
access this program. However, I'm struggling to understand the qt
code.

Is there already someone working on improving  the accessibility of
the wireshark gui with whom I could collaborate, or is there anybody
who could help me understand the qt code so I can fix this myself? Any
help would be much appreciated.
