Re: [orca-list] problems with latest Orca and Firefox3

I needed a sanity break from the day job. I'll leave it to y'all to
interpret whether that means I'm taking a break to preserve my sanity,
or that my sanity and I have had a parting of the ways. <smile>
Regardless.... Jon, I have filed a bug for your report here:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=509482

I also added you to the CC list so that you'll get updates -- from which
you should know that I also attached a patch for you to test. <smile>

Thanks again!  Take care.
