Re: [orca-list] Which distribution is good for Orca development?

[hackingKK <hackingkk gmail com>]

Hi.
I think what ever distro suits you is the best.
But vinux has an advantage that it is built on top of one of the most 
popular, production ready industry quality distro called Ubuntu.
the disadvantage is that vinux will not always have the latest features
I don't know what version of orca and firefox are they currently using?
I don't don't know what version of office.
Well, arch linux is another good option as I am reading some mails on 
this list off late regarding that distro.

Happy hacking.
