Re: [orca-list] Orca ocr

[Linux A11y <chrys linux-a11y org>]

Howdy,

As others noted i created OCR desktop for this Task. Its not a orca plugin because this is not where it 
belongs to. 

But it needs some modernization and maintain work too. My per day job lock almost all my time since a while 
(and will continue til the current huge ERP project is competed).

But if you are interested in helping out let me know. Always happy to get help.

Cheers chrys
