Re: [orca-list] battery status in orca

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

It seems to me that unless there are very different goals and capabilities in the two plug-in systems that it 
would be much better for everyone to come 
together and decide on which oone to use and concentrate all eforts there. 
While in theory one could certainly have two plug-in platforms available for orca it seems like going that 
toute would create clutter, bloat and 
confusion. 
If there is no obvious better plug-in system then perhaps it should come down to which system testers prefer.
I can see a lot of support email asking why a plug-in written to run on one system does not worlk on the 
othedr. 
Maybe things are not that far apart under the hood and the work can be merged and adapted in to one system, 
but if not my gut feeling is that it would 
be best to decide on one approach sooner rather than later.
