+<p>Accessibility is the process of ensuring your application can be
+used by people with various disabilities. Disabilities come in many forms:
+visual impairments, movement impairments, hearing impairments, cognitive
+and language impairments, and seizure disorders. Many people have some
+sort of disability, and making your application accessibility will allow
+more people to use your application effectively.</p>
+
+<p>GNOME provides support for accessibility devices using the ATK
+framework. This framework defines a set of interfaces to which graphical
+interface components adhere. This allows, for instance, screen readers
+to read the text of an interface and interact with its controls. ATK
+support is built into GTK+ and the rest of the GNOME platform, so any
+application using GTK+ will have reasonable accessibility support for
+free.</p>
+
+<p>Nonetheless, you should be aware of accessibility issues when
+when developing your applications. Although GTK+ interfaces provide
+reasonable accessibility by default, you can often improve how well
+your program behaves with accessibility tools by providing additional
+information to ATK. If you develop custom widgets, you should ensure
+that they expose their properties to ATK. You should also avoid using
+sound, graphics, or color as the sole means of conveying information
+to the user.</p>
+
+<p>The GNOME desktop ships with a number of accessibility tools
+which enable users with disabilities to take full advantage of their
+desktop and applications. Applications that fully implement ATK will
+be able to work with the accessibility tools. GNOME's accessibility
+tools include a screen reader, a screen magnifier, an on-screen
+keyboard, and <app>Dasher</app>, an innovative
+predictive text entry tool.</p>

+<p>Cairo is a 2D graphics library featuring a sophisticated API for
+drawing vector graphics, compositing images, and rendering anti-aliased
+text. Cairo provides support for multiple output devices, including the
+X Window System, Microsoft Windows, and image buffers, allowing you to
+write platform-independent code to draw graphics on different media.</p>
+
+<p>The Cairo drawing model is similar to those provided by PostScript
+and PDF. The Cairo API provides such drawing operations as stroking and
+filling cubic BÃzier splines, compositing images, and performing affine
+transformations. These vector operations allow for rich, anti-aliased
+graphics without using expensive pixel-based drawing in your application
+code.</p>
+
+<p>Cairo's rich drawing model allows for high-quality rendering to
+multiple media. The same API can be used to create stunning on-screen
+graphics and text, to render images, or create crisp output suitable
+for printing.</p>
+
+<p>You should use Cairo whenever you need to draw graphics in your
+application beyond the widgets provided by GTK+. Much of the drawing
+inside GTK+ is done using Cairo. Using Cairo for your custom drawing
+will allow your application to have high-quality, anti-aliased, and
+resolution-independent graphics.</p>

+<p>Clutter is a library that allows creating fast, portable, dynamic,
+compelling user interfaces.</p>
+
+<p>Clutter uses the <link href="http://www.khronos.org/opengl/";>OpenGL</link>
+and <link href="http://www.khronos.org/opengles/";>OpenGL|ES</link> industry
+standard API to access the accelerated graphical hardware on both desktop and
+mobile environments alike, without exposing the complexities of GPU pipeline
+programming.</p>
+
+<p>Clutter does not specify any visual style, and does not provide any
+pre-defined complex user interface control; it lets the developer define what
+is needed, using a flexible scene graph API, with free-form placement of the
+scene elements (or "actors") on the main viewport (or "stage").</p>
+
+<p>Clutter comes with pre-defined actors for displaying solid colors,
+image data, text and custom high-precision 2D drawing using the Cairo
+API. Clutter also provides generic classes for structuring a user interface
+using both a box-packing model like GTK+, and a series of free-form
+"constraints".</p>
+
+<p>A number of third-party libraries allow integration with other
+technologies, such as: Clutter-GTK, for embedding a Clutter stage inside a
+GTK+ application; Clutter-GStreamer, for embedding GStreamer video and audio
+pipelines; Clutter-Box2D and Clutter-Bullet, for adding physics interaction
+in both 2D and 3D environments.</p>

+<p>D-Bus is a cross-desktop message bus for sending events between
+various applications, the desktop, and low-level components of the system.
+D-Bus provides a simple API for sending messages to particular services
+and for broadcasting messages to all interested services. D-Bus enables
+different types of applications to communicate and integrate with each
+other and with the desktop, providing better interaction and a richer
+experience for the user.</p>
+
+<p>D-Bus provides a session and a system bus. The session bus is
+used by applications in a single user session, allowing them to share
+data and event notifications and to integrate into the user's desktop.
+For example, movie players can send a D-Bus message to prevent the
+screensaver from activating when the user is watching a movie.</p>
+
+<p>The system bus is a single message bus which runs independently of
+any user sessions. It can communicate with applications in any session,
+enabling those applications to interact with system components without
+dealing with low-level system details. The system bus is used to provide
+important functionality that users expect to work on their systems. For
+example, the system bus is used to monitor when network interfaces go up
+or down, when external drives get plugged in, and when laptop batteries
+are low.</p>
+
+<p>D-Bus is developed jointly on <link
+href="http://www.freedesktop.org/";>freedesktop.org</link>, so you can
+use it with different desktop environments and applications. Because
+D-Bus is a cross-desktop project, you use it to create portable and
+versatile software that seamlessly integrates with the user's desktop,
+regardless of which desktop it is.</p>
+
+<p>GNOME provides full support for D-Bus using the GBus and GDBus
+APIs in GIO.</p>

+Using Evolution Data Server means that users no longer have to maintain

+to their calendar.</p>
+
+<p>People use computers increasingly to interact with their friends
+and colleagues. Applications such as email programs, instant messengers,
+and telephony and video conferencing applications are used to communicate
+with others. These applications often provide contact lists to help users.
+Using Evolution Data Server, applications can store contact information in
+a single location, allowing all applications to see all the pertinent data
+about users' contacts.</p>
+
+<p>Applications can also use Evolution Data Server to store and retrieve
+appointments on the user's calendar. For example, the clock on the panel
+shows a simple calendar when clicked. If the user has any appointments
+scheduled, they are shown alongside the calendar. This makes it easy to
+see upcoming appointments without opening a full calendar application.</p>

+<p>GDK is the low-level library used by GTK+ to interact with the
+system for graphics and input devices. Although you will rarely use
+GDK directly in application code, it contains all the necessary
+functionality to draw objects and text to the screen and to interact
+with the user with various input devices.</p>
+
+<p>GDK enables you to access events from keyboards, mice, and other
+input devices, rather than connect to the high-level signals used in
+GTK+. GDK also provides low-level routines to access drag and drop
+and clipboard data from the system. When implementing custom controls,
+you may need to access these features to implement proper user interaction
+behavior.</p>
+
+<p>GDK provides other functionality which is needed to implement
+a complete graphical toolkit like GTK+. Since GDK acts as a platform
+abstraction, allowing GTK+ to run under multiple environments, it
+provides an API for all of the system functionality needed by GTK+.
+This includes information about multi-head displays, resolution and
+color depth, colormaps, and cursors.</p>
+
+<p>You should use GDK whenever you need low-level access to the
+underlying windowing system, including low-level access to events,
+windows, and the clipboard. Using GDK for these tasks ensures that
+your code is portable and integrates with the rest of your GTK+ code.
+The simple drawing routines in GDK should generally not be used.
+Instead, you should use the extensive functionality provide by
+Cairo.</p>

+<p>GIO provides APIs for asynchronously reading and writing files and
+other streams. Files are referenced by URIs, and local backends can
+provide access to more than just local files. When running under the
+GNOME desktop, GIO uses GVfs to allow access to files over SFTP, FTP,
+WebDAV, SMB, and other popular protocols. This transparent network
+file access is free to all applications using GIO.</p>
+
+<p>The GIO file APIs were designed to be used in event-driven graphical
+interfaces. The non-blocking, asynchronous design means your user interface
+doesn't hang while waiting for a file. There are also synchronous versions
+of the APIs available, which are sometimes more convenient for worker
+threads or processes.</p>
+
+<p>GIO also provides routines for managing drives and volumes, querying
+file types and icons, and finding applications to open files.</p>

+<p>GStreamer is a powerful multimedia library for playing, creating,
+and manipulating sound, video, and other media. You can use GStreamer
+to provide sound and video playback, record input from multiple sources,
+and edit multimedia content. GStreamer supports encoding and decoding
+numerous formats by default, and support for additional formats can be
+added with plug-ins.</p>
+
+<p>GStreamer provides a flexible architecture wherein media is
+processed through a pipeline of elements. Each element may apply
+filters to the content, such as encoding or decoding, combining
+multiple sources, or transforming the multimedia content. This
+architecture allows for an arbitrary arrangement of elements,
+so that you can accomplish virtually any effect using GStreamer.
+Furthermore, GStreamer is designed to have low overhead, so it
+can be used in applications with high demands on latency.</p>
+
+<p>While GStreamer provides a powerful API for manipulating
+multimedia, it also provides convenient routines for simple
+playback. GStreamer can automatically construct a pipeline to
+read and playback files in any supported format, allowing you
+to use sound and video in your application easily.</p>
+
+<p>The GStreamer architecture allows plugins to add encoders,
+decoders, and all sorts of content filters. Third-party developers
+can provide GStreamer plugins which will be automatically available
+to other applications using GStreamer. Plugins can provide support
+for other multimedia formats or provide additional functionality
+and effects.</p>
+
+<p>You should use GStreamer whenever you need to read or play
+multimedia content in your application, or if your application
+needs to manipulate sound or video. Using GStreamer makes your
+application development easy, and it provides you well-tested
+elements for many of your needs.</p>
+
+<p>For comprehensive information on GStreamer, see <link
+href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/index.html";>The
+GStreamer Application Development Manual</link>, <link

+<p>GTK+ is the primary library used to construct user interfaces
+in GNOME. It provides all the user interface controls, or widgets,
+used in a common graphical application. Its modern, object-oriented
+API allows you to construct attractive and sophisticated user
+interfaces without dealing with the low-level details of drawing and
+device interaction.</p>
+
+<p>In addition to basic widgets, such as buttons, check boxes,
+and text entries, GTK+ also provides powerful Model-View-Controller
+(MVC) APIs for tree views, multi-line text fields, and menu and
+toolbar actions.</p>
+
+<p>Widgets in GTK+ are placed on windows using a box-packing model.
+Programmers specify only how to pack widgets together in container
+boxes, rather than position them directly with absolute coordinates.
+GTK+ ensures that windows are sized correctly to fit their contents,
+and it automatically handles window resizing.</p>
+
+<p>Because GTK+ offers a flexible API, developing additional widgets
+for use in GTK+ applications is easy. A number of third-party libraries
+exist which provide additional widgets, and many developers have created
+custom, special-purpose widgets for their applications.</p>
+
+<p>GTK+ handles the difficult details of user interfaces and user
+interaction, and provides a simple yet powerful API which allows you
+to focus on the details of your application. Applications developed
+with GTK+ will automatically follow the user's theme and font settings,
+will interact properly with accessibility technologies, and will behave
+as users expect.</p>

+<p>GUPnP is an object-oriented open source framework for creating UPnP devices and control points,
+written in C using GObject and libsoup. The GUPnP API is intended to be easy to use, efficient and
+flexible.</p>
+
+<p>The GUPnP framework consists of the following components/packages:</p>
+
+<list>
+
+<item><p>GSSDP: The low-level library implementing resource discovery and announcement on the
+network through SSDP protocol.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>GUPnP: The core library that implements the UPnP specification: resource announcement and
+discovery, description, control, event notification, and presentation (GUPnP includes basic web
+server functionality through libsoup). GUPnP does not include helpers for construction or control of
+specific standardized resources (e.g. MediaServer); this is left for higher level libraries
+utilizing the GUPnP framework.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>GUPnP A/V: A small utility library that aims to ease the handling and implementation of
+UPnP A/V profiles.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>GUPnP DLNA: A small utility library that aims to ease the DLNA-related tasks such as media
+profile guessing, transcoding to a given profile, etc.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>GUPnP IGD: A library to handle UPnP Internet Gateway Device port mappings.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>GUPnP Vala: Vala bindings for GUPnP libraries.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>GUPnP Tools: Free replacements of Intel UPnP tools, that use GUPnP. They provides the
+following client and server side tools which enable one to easily test and debug one's UPnP devices
+and control points:</p>
+
+<list>
+
+<item><p>Universal Control Point: a tool that enables one to discover UPnP devices and services,
+retrieve information about them, subscribe to events and invoke actions.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>Network Light: a virtual light bulb that allows control points to switch it on and off,
+change its dimming level and query its current status. It also provides a simple UI to control all
+the network lights available on the network.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>AV Control Point: a simple media player UI that enables one to discover and play multimedia
+contents available on a network. It is strictly a control point and therefore does not have any
+playback capabilities of it's own and relies on external UPnP MediaRenderer devices for actual
+playback.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>Upload: a simple commandline utility that uploads files to known MediaServers. Use
+Universal Control Point for discovering the MediaServers.</p></item>
+
+</list>
+
+</item>
+
+</list>
+
+<p>The GUPnP framework was born out of frustration with libupnp and its mess of threads. GUPnP is
+entirely single-threaded (though asynchronous), integrates with the GLib main loop, and provides the
+same set of features as libupnp while hiding most of the UPnP internals through an elegant
+object-oriented design.</p>
+
+<p>GUPnP is free software. All libraries are released under the GNU LGPL, while GUPnP Tools are
+licensed under GNU GPL.</p>
+
+<p>You should use GUPnP whenever you need your code to communicate with any UPnP or DLNA devices.
+Examples of such devices includes Sony Playstation 3 and Bravia model TVs, Samsung TVs and phones, Microsoft XBox and all modern router etc. The list of such devices is huge and its increasing.</p>
+
+<p>Apart from dealing with existing UPnP devices, GUPnP can very effectively be used to easily
+create custom home network solutions where devices/services are able to discover and interact with
+each other without any configuration from user.</p>
+

+
+ <p>GNOME provides a modern and secure keyring manager to store users'
+passwords and other sensitive data. Applications can use the keyring
+manager library to store and access passwords, and users can manage
+their passwords using GNOME's <app>Seahorse</app>
+application.</p>
+
+<p>The keyring manager provides any number of keyrings, where each
+keyring can contain any number of keyring items. Items in a keyring
+store some piece of data, often a password. Each keyring is locked
+individually, and users must provide a password to unlock the keyring.
+Once a keyring has been unlocked, the user has access to all of the
+items in that keyring.</p>
+
+<p>The keyring manager provides access control lists for each keyring
+item, controlling which applications are allowed access to that item.
+If an unknown application attempts to access a keyring item, the keyring
+manager will prompt the user to allow or deny that application access.
+This helps prevent malicious or poorly-written programs from accessing
+the user's sensitive data.</p>
+
+<p>Keyring data stored on the file system is encrypted with the AES
+block cipher, and SHA1 is used for hashes of the item's attributes.
+Using the attributes hash, the keyring manager is able to look up items
+requested by applications without ever unlocking the keyring. The
+keyring has to be unlocked when a matching item is found and
+accessed.</p>
+
+<p>The keyring manager also provides a session keyring. Items in
+the session keyring are never stored on disk, and are lost as soon as
+the user's session ends. The session keyring can be used to store
+passwords to be used in the current session only.</p>
+
+<p>If you use GIO to access remote servers, you automatically
+get the benefits of the keyring manager. Whenever GVFS needs to
+authenticate the user, it provides the option to store the password,
+either in the default keyring or in the session keyring.</p>
+
+<p>You should use the keyring manager whenever your application needs
+to store passwords or other sensitive data for users. Using the keyring
+manager provides a better user experience while still keeping user data
+safe and secure.</p>

+
+ <p>Pango is the core text and font handling library in the GNOME
+platform. It is responsible for laying out and rendering text, and
+is used throughout GTK+.</p>
+<note><p>The Pango layout engine can be used with different font
+backends and drawing backends. On most GNOME systems, Pango
+will use FreeType, fontconfig, and Cairo to access fonts and
+render text. On other systems, Pango will use the native font
+systems, such as Uniscribe on Microsoft Windows and ATSUI on
+MacOS</p></note>
+
+<p>Pango has extensive support for the various writing systems
+used throughout the world. Many of the writing systems used for
+languages have complex rules for laying out glyphs and composing
+characters. With Pango, nearly all languages can be written and
+displayed correctly, allowing users everywhere to view text in their
+native languages. Pango support for multiple writing systems is
+automatic; application developers do not have to write any special
+code to support other languages.</p>
+
+<p>Pango supports the text styling used in typical documents
+and interfaces, including italics, font weights, and underlines.
+Pango uses a simple XML-like vocabulary called PangoMarkup which
+enables you to set font size, color, styles, and other text
+attributes. Using PangoMarkup, you can specify inline styles
+without manually iterating over text blocks. PangoMarkup can
+be used directly from GTK+, enabling you to style text in your
+graphical interfaces easily.</p>
+
+<p>You should use Pango directly whenever you need to lay
+text out on the screen or on a different medium. Using Pango
+will allow your text layout to work seamlessly with GTK+ and
+the rest of the GNOME platform. It will help you create
+portable code, and most importantly, it will ensure that your
+application can render text correctly in hundreds of different
+languages.</p>

+<p>Telepathy provides a powerful framework for interacting with the
+user's instant messaging contacts. With Telepathy, all accounts and
+connections are handled by a D-Bus session service that's deeply
+integrated into the GNOME desktop. Applications can tie into this
+service to communicate with contacts.</p>
+
+<p>With the Telepathy Tubes API, you can even tunnel an arbitrary
+protocol over modern instant messaging protocols like Jabber to
+create interactive applications. Create multi-player games or
+collaborative editors that integrate with the desktop-wide
+instant messaging services.</p>

+<p>WebKit is a powerful, multi-platform HTML engine used in open

+built on <link xref="gtk">GTK+</link> and integrated into the
+GNOME developer platform. WebKitGTK+ is developed upstream as
+part of the main WebKit project, so it's always up to date with
+the latest HTML5 features.</p>
+
+<p>WebKitGTK+ makes it easy to add web functionality to your
+application, or to use HTML5 and associated technologies to
