Re: [orca-list] orca, java access bridge and java

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Sergio:

There is a bigger problem happening somewhere in the scope of the Java 
Access Bridge for GNOME, which differs from the Java Access Bridge for 
Windows.  This problem can expose symptoms such as some controls being 
intermittently accessible, and sometimes just not spoken at all.  We're 
actively looking at this problem right now, and have made it a goal to 
have them resolved by GNOME 2.24 this fall.  We don't understand the 
problem fully at this point, however, so we cannot guarantee we will 
meet this goal.  But, we are trying very hard.
