This may be true. I also think that focusing attention on changing Orca is a
little misguided, since many of the bugs and limitations are in applications and
desktop environments rather than in Orca itself. I'm sure Python programmers
can contribute and I would encourage them to do so. The greatest need, though,
is for C and C++ programmers who can work on libraries and applications to
make them more accessible.
