Re: [orca-list] [Support] Tox Messenger, it's a FOSS replacement for Skype; I have questions.

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,
There appears to be strong community around this project. I haven't 
tried it so far however what is amazing eventhough I haven't yet 
installed it is that they already have pidgin protocol plugin, version 
for android and they are even considering IOS version.
They are using GTK plus 3 on linux and QT 5 on linux and windows for the 
user interface so at least there is a chance accessibility issues are 
fixable I hope as they arise.


Greetings

Peter
