Re: [orca-list] Spellcheck support for LibreOffice

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

Just out of curiosity, how is accessibility support for the old open office these days? Have any of the 
accessibility improvements done to libreoffice made it upstream? Or, is it essentially exactly as it was left 
when it was forked? Just wondering.

Thank you for all your hard work,
Alex M
