Re: [orca-list] GUI Redesign or clearup and modernization

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

I like the control center approach just fine when using mate, gnome, unity..., but none of those is my 
environment of choice, and I think it's very 
important to make sure that orca continues to work on as many systems as is possible including WM based 
systems such as my flulxbox.
It seems like it'd be really hard to fork things to allow for a version that does not depend on gnome 
integration. 
Again, I  like the control centers and it'd be fine to have orca settings there, but if having that means 
that one will beforced to have  that 
infrastructure I vote against it. 
I also like having an orca directory where one can easily fiind user specific stuff and move it to other 
machines when desired.
 I don't milnd working with schemas and keys, but do think it's a much harder concept for the relative novice 
to get their head around compared to the 
current way of doing things.
