===============
* 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 wonderful community members.

The Orca v2.20.2 release is targeted for the GNOME v2.20.2 stable 
release.  Note that this differs from the v2.21.x development releases 
being done in preparation for v2.22.0.
