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 2.2.1

* [core] Fix org.a11y.Bus.Enabled property to set its initial state from the
   GSettings key, if available and an initial property is not given on the
   command line.

* [core] Fix for BGO#660947: Gracefully exit when already running, rather than
   triggering a SIGABRT.

* [core/atk] Updated Finnish translation.

* [pyatspi] Use hasattr rather than a try in registerEventListener, for
   performance.

* [pyatspi] Fix for BGO#661613: getOffsetAtPoint now works.

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.
