Re: [orca-list] Measures to reduce Orca and Gnome crashes

I thought Gnome 3 also had some accessibility problems and people were
talking about sticking with Gnome 2. Have all of the Gnome 3
accessibility issues been resolved in Gnome 3.2?

Also, are these problems with Unity being reported back to the Unity
team and the Ubuntu Accessibility community so they can be addressed in
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS?
