Re: Orca SEVERE Firefox regression independent of (was Re: is now crashing Firefox 3.0)

Thanks Lorenzo!   I may have been a bit defensive -- I woke
up to an 
inbox full of e-mails with subjects along the lines of
"Orca is 
crashing/hurting xxx".
When I dug into them, I saw that it really was a
failure/regression 
outside the control of Orca.  From a historical point of
view, I'd like 
to see the Orca mailing list thread summaries provide a more
accurate 
representation of the issue at hand.   For example, imagine
my boss 
happened to say "Hey, I'll view the the Orca mailing
list archives to 
see how it's going."  To help prevent potentially
inaccurate 
perceptions, I will often retitle the subject when I
respond.  I also 
gratuitously retitle subjects to more meaningful phrases to
help others 
track down problems. 

Having said that, I want to assure everyone that we want to
hear about 
problems.  Feedback from our users is very important and I
value the 
fact that people take the time to write comments.  You guys
are all an 
awesome community, and the general patience with the
bleeding edge is 
commendable.  We are going to get there together one step at
time.

They should use stable software and not a pre alpha
development version.
Is firefox 3 already aan alpha version?

I made some tests with orca and ff and notized 
that the accessibility stuff is getting better and better.
But do not forget that ff 3 is not an enduser app yet.

The response of the orca team for reported problems is very
good.
Thanks a lot for your hard work in orca.
