[orca-list] need testing for a Firefox bug fix

[Mike Gorse <mgorse alum wpi edu>]

Hi all,

So Trevor and I have made a fix for the Firefox issue where it doesn't 
detect that accessibility is enabled on GNOME 3:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693343

Currently, the fix is in trunk (the Firefox 12 tree) and aurora (the tree 
that will become Firefox 11) but not the Firefox 10 beta. Getting changes 
into aurora and beta requires extra approval, and Mozilla developers are 
fairly conservative about what they allow in.

Anyway, one of the Mozilla accessibility developers thinks that testing 
from the GNOME accessibility community might help get the patch landed 
into beta, so if anyone would like to test a build with the patch and 
comment on the bug with the distribution/version that you tested with, 
then that would be welcome. This applies whether you're using GNOME 2 or 
GNOME 3--it needs to not introduce regressions for GNOME 2, which in 
theory it shouldn't.

Anyway, you can get a nightly Aurora 911) build that includes the fix at 
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla-aurora/

Thanks,
