Re: [orca-list] trying to use Orca full-time, have some questions



HI Alex,
Can you give me some more inputs on this.
I wish to try gnome shell 3.10 and my first question is which distro.
Secondly, can it be used for daily full time purpose?
I am still stuck with Unity 2d and it is kind of good enough.
If you say gnome shell 3.10 is even better, then I am tempted to try it out.
Happy hacking.

With Gnome 3.10, I believe Gnome Shell has surpassed Unity 2d for

comparable.  I then saw 3.8 and saw great improvement.  3.10 with its
improvements is even better and, I think, outstrips Unity 2d in areas like
pdf accessibility and hotkeys to navigate the different areas of the desktop
system.  With all the Orca improvements being backported to 3.10 from the
3.11 refactoring Joannie is doing, I can't imagine using 12.04 right now
with its outdated a11y stack.

Just my 2 cents,
Alex M

So afterall Vinux is based on the same version.
I am personally using Ubuntu 12.04 and perhaps will do so till the spring of
2014.
I hope then by now at least gnome shell will have more accessibility and we
will get to do a lot with it.
Happy hacking.

Thank you to everyone who has answered my questions on-list and off-list.

I truly appreciate it.

I've also done some reading and asking around, and I'm finding that
Ubuntu 12.04 (not sure of the exact version number, will confirm it)
could be my best bet.

Julius
