Re: [orca-list] (aside from the debating) Orca, Skype and accessibility workaround

That is great news, that thre is such an open standard. The problem is 
however, that so many people use Skype - it has becoem an industry standard 
all of its own.

I have a feeling that the issues I am experiencing may be with Woobi as a 
fvridend of mine has recently got Skype working on his netbook.
Take care
James
