Re: [orca-list] ORCA improvements

[Alejandro Leiva <aleiva emergya es>]

Hi Joanie,

No problem, our orca branch at gitorious is synchronized with orca's main. 

We're starting to learn about orca internals then we can wait to your refactor, anyway we'll try to merge to 
HEAD when possible and provide patchs through bug at bugzilla. 

Is this way right ?

Thanks!
