Summary:
Per the accessibility meeting at the GNOME Summit in Boston, I moved the selection of ATs to the Preferred 
Applications (gnome-default-applications-properties) dialog under a new "Accessibility" tab. In this new 
window, the assitive technologies are categorized as "visual" or "mobility".  I instructed the removal of the 
 hardcoded launching of the ATs in gnome-session and to move that hook to gnome-at-session.desktop. I started 
the migration of GNOME Accessibility Project to live.gnome.org.  I worked with Sun, Novell, and IBM to 
architect the multi-user accessibility enhancement (163132) for GNOME 2.18.  I started the project management 
wiki to migrate GNOME accessibility from Orbit2 to Dbus.  I led the IBM Linux Accessibility Project (LAP) 
working on GNOME.

---------------
I'm an advocate for standardizing GNOME accessibility (eg., libat, at-spi IDL) within a11y.org, LSB, and the 
Linux Foundation.
