Re: [orca-list] More on Orca and Firefox: possible freezing

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

Peter, you say you are using firefox 27? 
Was this a typo?, i.e. were you using firefox37? I'm on firefox38.0.5-1 I think it is on arch. 
First if you are actually using firefox27, why? I froze updates at 22 I think it was on Ubuntu/vinux for a 
good while, and kept arch from updating from 
firefox24 for months, but have been updating on arch regularly for some time. My reasons for freezing updates 
were mostly accessiblity related for a 
while, but problems with at least one extension kept me on the older releases part of the time as well.
I assume that you are using latest firefox, Joani, and thus that firefox version is not important here, but 
please correct me if this is wrong. I've not 
been following this conversation closely, so if this has been answered please excuse me.
