Since we're talking about GNOME and accessibility, it would be useful
to include Chris Hofstader, the GNU access technology coordinator,
c...@gnu.org. He is trying to find resources for work on GNOME
accessibility.

So, turn cross-platform Orca means turns two modules, and create

Porting Orca to Windows or NVDA to Linux just isn't going to happen.

I agree with Cesar.

provided to allow porting to different platforms.
Maybe in some kind of future NVDA and Orca could actually share a codebase
