contained a change that needed to be reverted, requiring a 2.2.3 release.
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 C and a wrapper
for Python.
What's changed in AT-SPI 2.2.3
* [core] Fix return type of org.a11y.Bus.IsEnabled property
* [core] Declare void functions as such
* [atk] Don't leave va_args dangling
* [atk] Have Socket's implementation of ref_state_set to return empty sets
instead of NULL
* [atk] Make sure the a11y hierarchy under an AtkPlug is generated when
embedding.

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.
