Willie/Don,

What are the drawbacks from using GNOME 2.16/2.18 and Orca?  What are the
items gained from using GNOME 2.22?

Thanks.

Hi Ashis:

This list seems about right.  I don't work on RHEL, however, so I might
be making some assumptions about dependencies that I'm not aware of.

If possible, you should try to go with GNOME 2.22.x for a stable release
of GNOME.  Since they are part of GNOME, this should also get you Orca,
ATK, GAIL, and AT-SPI.

Then, try applying some form of the directions at
http://live.gnome.org/Orca/JABG to get the Java Access Bridge for GNOME.
  By "some form", I mean that the instructions on the WIKI were most
likely written for Ubuntu and not RedHat.

I don't have experience with BrlTTY on RedHat or Fedora, so I don't know
if there are any quirks with it there.  Users on this list might be able
to help, though.

CBE is only needed for Solaris, so you don't need it for RHEL.

Hope this helps.  If you get it to work, would you consider adding a
section on the WIKI for it?

Will
