Hi all,
So as some of you may have heard, Canonical has plans to stop maintaining unity 
2D in future development cycles. This makes sense because spending double the 
resources trying to keep 2 desktops in feature parity is a lot of work, and 
those resources can be used much better elsewhere. The downside of course, is 
accessibility. Unity 3D accessibility still needs some work to get to feature 
parity with Unity 2D, but once this work is done, it shouldn't be a problem 
keeping things working in the future.

So, i will be working on improving Unity 3D accessibility in the future 
development cycles. I am not going to promise that it will be done by 12.10, 
although I would like it to be, but thats not my goal. My goal is to get Unity 
3D accessibility ready for 14.04 LTS.

I feel that unless you really understand how to get set up, and unbreak your 
system, and deal with accessibility bugs, you should stick to the ubuntu LTS 
releases. Once Vinux 4 gets released, there will be a distro based on Ubuntu 
LTS, that will be kept up to date with all the latest in accessibility fixes, 
so that you don't need to keep updating to the interim Ubuntu releases, and 
risk breaking your usable system.
