Re: [orca-list] trying to use Orca full-time, have some questions

HI Alex,
Can you give me some more inputs on this.
I wish to try gnome shell 3.10 and my first question is which distro.
Secondly, can it be used for daily full time purpose?
I am still stuck with Unity 2d and it is kind of good enough.
If you say gnome shell 3.10 is even better, then I am tempted to try it out.
Happy hacking.
Krishnakant.
