Re: [orca-list] Different desktop environments, expressing appreciation

[Guy Schlosser <guyster104 att net>]

Plus one on the appreciation for Joanie and all the others who make orca 
happen.  I just also wanted to answer a question Joanie asked 
yesterday.  Yes, I would love to see the directions on building xfce 
from master.  I for one don't mind Unity, so will try orca from Master 
any way, but I know some people who might get a better linux experience 
out of xfce.  Thanks for all the hard work, and Happy New Year.
