Re: Orca branched for gnome-2-18

["Leonardo Fontenelle" <leo fontenelle gmail com>]

Translators and documenters: if you have a working copy of orca trunk,
you may switch to branch 2-18 without copying it or checking it out
again. Just go to your equivalent of ~/linux/svn/orca and type:

svn switch svn+ssh://leonardof svn gnome org/svn/orca/branches/gnome-2-18
