Re: [orca-list] [ubuntu] updated a11y page

Yeah, I don't think there's any reason to run down another distro, like
vinux, Sonar or F123, just to promote the accessibility of Ubuntu. Even
if your intentions are good, the perception is working against you. Like
Alex says, just highlight the accessibility features in Ubuntu and let
the reader make up their own mind.
