[orca-list] accessibility of evolution, (was is it just me, or is thunderbird much faster now?)



I read messages here a while back saying Evolution might be getting accessible. Anybody know if this is true?

Hello,
I am using Thunderbird 32 stable and I haven't noticed much more
improvements than what Joanie managed to implement in orca during gnome
3.14 development cycle.
I am afraid Mozilla's resources are much more limited when it comes to
accessibility than they used to be in the past.
They are now focusing on Firefox OS accessibility with windows and
android as a second class citizens on their radar and mac and linux
accessibility will only receive common multi platform accessibility and
performance related improvements I am afraid.

This is just my interpretation of what I have seen recently so hopefully
I am mistaken.

Greetings

Peter

I've pretty much stopped using thunderbird as of several months ago
although it was my first email client of the "modern age". This was
partially for personal reasons and temporary, and as of tb 32 or33
nightly builds the sync issue that had driven me away from t-bird for
a year or so was a temporary situation.
I gave it at spin just now, and am very impressed with the overall
responsiveness, and so far am not having any problems.
I am using a nightly build.
My question is:
why is it so much fster than I've seen, maybe ever on Linux or windows?
I am using a faster computer than I've had of late, so some could be
this, but my doubt is whether the recent changes to orca have improved
t-bird prefomance for all, and a lot, or is this something in current
nightly builds that has greatly improved the interaction with orca?
Thanks much for your feedback.
While I'll keep using mutt a lot, this snappy thunderbird is great,
and I'm really glad to have it back in my toolkit.
