Hello Frank

A question: you wrote earlier about an 'excellent' Orca documentation?
Where did you find it?

   http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/hirschfeld/projects/orca/index.html
   has a demo video and installation instructions for server (Squeak)
and client (JavaScript)

   Or is it this paper [1] you are referring to?

Regards
Hannes
