news 28 Posted March 8, 2011 AT-SPI2 1.91.91 is now available for download at: http://download.gnome.org/sources/pyatspi/1.91/ http://download.gnome.org/sources/at-spi2-core/1.91/ http://download.gnome.org/sources/at-spi2-atk/1.91/ Notes ===== The --enable-relocate option has been removed. It was only intended as a temporary hack to simplify testing, was hard to set up, and seemed to cause problems (ie, BGO#641869). Distributions that still package AT-SPI-CORBA may want to mark it as conflicting with AT-SPI2. A list of work required before the full release can be found at: http://www.a11y.org/d-bus What's changed in AT-SPI2 1.91.91 =============================== * [core/atk] Changed device event IPC to use uint32 for hw_code and modifiers, to be more consistent with the rest of the API. * [core] GetNSelections has an out parameter, not an in. * [core/pyatspi] Fix for BGO#643384: - atspi_register_keystroke_listener() should take a bitmask, not AtspiKeyListenerSyncType. * [core] Avoid setting enum values to 0x80000000, to prevent a pygi exception. * [core] Fix for BGO#643454: Kill the accessibility bus daemon with the GNOME session * [core] Fix for BGO#643110: Do not allow all users to connect to the accessibility bus. * [atk] Fix some missing prototypes. * [atk] Do not exit if the accessibility bus disconnects. What is AT-SPI2 =============== AT-SPI2 is a D-Bus based accessibility framework. It defines a D-Bus protocol for providing and accessing application accessibility information. The project includes a library for bridging the D-Bus protocol to the ATK API, allowing Gtk based applications to be made accessible. It also contains a client (AT) side library in Python. Where can I get more information about AT-SPI2 ============================================== The project wiki is available at: http://www.a11y.org/d-bus How can I contribute to AT-SPI2? ================================ We are actively seeking contributors to help us make this the standard a11y framework for Gnome. We need help testing with Gnome accessibility technologies, improving performance, and generally tying up loose ends. The above-referenced page contains a list of known issues that should be fixed.
