Announcing Orca v2.22.3

Recommended Posts

NOTE: Don't get this confused with the 2.23 development releases. This

is for GNOME v2.22.3, not GNOME v2.23.x.

 

===============

* What is Orca?

===============

 

Orca is a free, open source, flexible, and extensible screen reader that

provides access to the graphical desktop via user-customizable

combinations of speech, braille, and/or magnification. Orca development

has been led by the Sun Microsystems, Inc., Accessibility Program Office

via continued engagement with its end users and generous contributions

from the Mozilla Foundation and wonderful community members.

 

The Orca v2.22.3 release is targeted for the GNOME v2.22.3 release and

requires the latest at-spi/pyatspi infrastructure from GNOME v2.22.3,

including atk and gail.

 

You can also read more about Orca at http://live.gnome.org/Orca.
