[orca-list] Ubuntu Unity Desktop to go to Mir and QT



Hi, all,

 

It looks like Ubuntu’s Unity desktop will be switching to QT/QML in the near future.  It looks like they’ll be using QT5.  Does anyone know the current state of accessibility for qt5 or QML?  We were all disappointed to find out that Unity 2d was discontinued in Ubuntu 12.04 and it is believed that Ubuntu 14.04 would continue it’s wonderfully accessible legacy.  This was supposed to soothe our ruffled feathers when 12.10 and 13.04 came out with Unity 3d only which was not as accessible.  Well, now, I am curious to know if the timetable for that level of accessibility in a Ubuntu desktop will need to be pushed back even more in light of this development.  Please see link below:
