[Hudlug] new version of orca

[MICHAEL WEAVER]

Hi!
I think one of the Ubuntu team or the accessability team for Ubuntu said 
something about possibly including Orca in Edgy when it is released in 
October.
There was something about Gnome only being able to include one 
screenreader for accessability which at the moment is Gnopernicus but as 
Gnopernicus seems to have halted in development I presume Gnome 
accessability is being done in the direction of accessability in Orca. I 
think I saw some other information as regards priorities in the next 
release and one of the things mentioned being able to use Speakup which 
would be easier for me for any command line use in Ubuntu.
