How much can be done by scripts, is it more possible to add new features, rather than make orca more reliable? I would have thought it would be easier to script new features, so may be the team should concentrate more on stability, reliability, and the core, and users should write scripts and contribute those to add to the features.
Where is a good resource on orca scripting, I don't think there was that much when I started with orca, and if there is still a lack may be docs on that would be useful.

And finally: The team and the users should ask themselves very seriously, how much sense it makes to add feature by feature, as long as there are such lacks in basic functionality.I'm going to turn this back to the users. We're a small team. A lot of demands are being made, and everything seems to be the most important thing to someone. We're being asked to drop everything for everything else. This obviously won't work. We keep a list of all our known issues and feature requests on Bugzilla: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?query=product%3Aorca What are your top issues? We'll look at the ones that our users deem most important. Keep in mind that some of them may be very time intensive, but we'll discuss the tradeoffs and we'll come to a good path with the community.
