Re: [orca-list] Orca readmap?

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Actually, it looks like pluma isn't using libpeas. Still, libpeas is a
small dependency and one used by other packages. Orca's other
dependencies are more "special" (i.e. for speech and braille) and other
desktop environments pull those in. So I continue to think that a
dependency on libpeas should not be a problem, and will make Orca much
more extensible by making it possible for anyone to make and distribute
plugins for Orca.
