[games_access] Call for Open Letters

[Steve Spohn]

Everyone is welcome to submit any style of letter they would like. Please
keep in mind, this is not an academic exercise and we will not be taking
letters that breakdown accessibility by the think tank level. We want
letters from industry Associates, developers, accessibility advocates,
disabled gamers personal letters of why accessibility matters.

it doesn't have to be general, just has to be a good read and touch a heart
string.
