[Hudlug] new version of orca

[MICHAEL WEAVER]

It seems like Orca has been updated again. Seems like it is being 
updated on a Monthly basis although the Ubuntu package for it may now be 
out of date.
===============
* What is Orca?
===============
Orca is a scriptable screen reader for the GNOME desktop for people
with visual impairments. Orca is being proposed for inclusion into
GNOME 2.16.
================================
* What's changed for Orca 0.2.6?
================================
* Addition of verbalized punctuation settings.
* Addition of spoken indentation information for lines.
* Adjustments to brief verbosity settings for speech.
* Additional work on automatic reading of the entire row for a table
cell, which is controlled by the orca.settings.readTableCellRow
property.
* Additional work on the StarOffice script to better support
configuration wizards.
* Additional work on Evolution to better support configuration wizards.
* Very preliminary support for the Java platform.
* Moved a number of utilities from various places to util.py.
* Moved http server support into its own module. Note that
orca.settings.speechServerPort is now defunct and has been replaced
by orca.settings.httpServerPort.
* Fixes for reading table row and column headers.
* Fix for bug 347054 to allow readTableCellRow and speechVerbosityLevel
settings to be set properly from the configuration GUI.
* Fix for bug 343897 to allow configuration GUI to pop to top when it
is shown. This requires a more recent version of PyGTK (2.9.3) to
work.
* Fix for bug 341388 to stop speech for an object when its window loses
focus.
* Fixes for bug 343133 to do defensive programming in flat review to
help prevent hangs.
* Fix for bug 345472 to not assume the last input event was a keyboard
event.
* More work on bug 319652 to reduce even more hangs.
* Fix for bug 344880 - process command line arguments even if a11y is
not enabled.
* Updates to the style guide.
