[orca-list] Ubuntu Unity Desktop to go to Mir and QT

[Krishnakant Mane]

 From what has been said about QT accessibility off late, it could

I think the people working on that front would have a better and real 
answer though.
And we can go ahead with gnome shell if things bother us too much.

happy hacking.
