Hi Joanie,
I think the thread on the training
material is on topic, because I am wanting folks to be able to learn to use
Orca, on whatever distro they choose.
Maybe you just selected a random
topic to reply to, but if not, then I guess I don't know how the thread I
started is off-topic.
I really think that without a good
audio tutorial on the basics of using Linux with Orca, people will never try
it.

As I think most of you know, I tend to be pretty tolerant of the occasional off-topic post. After all, there are not mailing lists for every last subtopic related to technology for users who are blind or visually impaired. As I think most of you also know, I tend to not be a hands-on moderator of this list. We all have our bad days. And usually misundertandings are worked out quickly -- or go off list. That said, the discussion this past week has been rather surprising to me. This mailing list is normally a good way to get my attention -- and the attention of others -- to ask questions, make suggestions, and report bugs related to Orca. That hasn't been the case this past week. To be perfectly honest, I've been deleting most of it unread. We need to decide what to do. If it were just me, I'd just keep deleting messages and wait for things to go back to normal. But a couple of people have gotten in touch with me privately. As a result, this message is an official request that we all get this mailing list back on the topic of Orca. If it is not about Orca, please discuss it elsewhere. Apologies for being the "bad guy" and thank you for your understanding. --joanie |
