[orca-list] Need some Orca help/hints

[ashis v purbhoo exxonmobil com]

All -

Looks like I've got FC9 into our test environment.  I'm trying to figure
how to make it work with login screen talk to me, is this possible?

I saw a some instructions for Solaris how do I do this for FC9?

Thanks.

Regards,
Ashis

Hi Ashis:

Orca is under continual development, and we rarely backport fixes from
new versions of Orca to older versions.  So, the benefits of using a
more modern Orca are that it contains more fixes and features than past
versions.  The same applies to GNOME itself.  The NEWS file for Orca
contains all the details:

http://svn.gnome.org/svn/orca/trunk/NEWS

The Orca road map contains a summary:
