I think until bug 1096603 is resolved[1], with note to comment #4 from the Chromium maintainer, we would be better to ship with Ffox for simply reasons of ram usage. Add to that our long term goal of improving accessibility for lubuntu and it becomes even more a case of making the switch. As currently the case with Ffox, if we ship Ffox people are welcome to install Chromium which will still be supported as a core application.<div>

Yes the Orca screen reader doesn't work at all with
Chromium.</blockquote>

[In risking to be political incorrect] So 95% of people will
not be enjoying the most popular Chromium because of the 5% of
the people? I'd rather think that if you care about those
people, you created a special edition especially for them,
with all the normally-optional feature built-in for them out
of the box. </div>

I find your claim that 95% of the people prefer Chromium dubious. <br>
<br>
I have no statistics myself on who prefers Chromium vs. Firefox.
But assuming that only visually impaired people prefer Firefox is
(at least in my case) incorrect. <br>
<br>
I am not visually impaired, and I prefer Firefox. <br><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">
