I am on the same lines but alas you will have to figure it out for 
yourself like the way I am doing.
I don't think there is any serious developer documentation out there.

From what I can read about your understanding< I hope you know that 
orca has a scripting model and most often than not, you will have to 
write application specific scripts.
So your best bet is to start looking at orca scrips rather than the core 
modules themselves.
I am also doing it right now.  I had requested many times on the list to 
produce a scripting guide but seems it will not happen before we move 
totally to dbus.

By the way it is very good idea to learn python very well.  Afterall it 
is a very good language and May be will help a lot in other places as well.
Where are you located in India?
May be we can work together for scripting many pending things like the 
evince pdf reader.  I don't have the time and resources to put in which 
you might have.
By the way which browser you want to make accessible with orca?

Happy hacking.
