Hi,
I've just thought about implementing a virtual braille device in qemu.
The idea would be that qemu use BrlAPI for accessing the real braille
device (see http://brl.thefreecat.org), and then emulate a virtual USB
braille device for the guest system.
The question I'd have for now is: how to choose which brand of USB
braille device to emulate? Should the simplest, fastest, or most
powerful protocol be chosen?
I guess powerfulness is important for providing the best support, but
how should emulation simplicity and speed compete in the choice?

I'd go for whichever is best documented and supported by the widest range of
(Open Source) operating systems.
