Re: [g-a-devel] ANNOUNCE: at-spi2 0.4.0 released

[Mike Gorse <mgorse alum wpi edu>]

By adding at-spi support, you mean that you want to support setting the 
configuration keys used by at-spi?

Currently, there is a gconf key to enable accessibility 
(/desktop/gnome/interface/accessibility) and also keys that enable 
at-spi2:
If at-spi2 is built with --enable-relocate, then 
/desktop/gnome/interface/at-spi-dbus enables it.
If at-spi2 is built with --disable-relocate, then 
/desktop/gnome/interface/at-spi-corba disables it.

However, gconf is being deprecated for GNOME 3.0, which means that all of 
this will need to be handled by gsettings instead in the future, and I'm 
not sure if someone has decided on key names to use for gsettings yet 
<making mental note to try to resolve this at the hakfest next week>.

Anyway, I don't know if that is the question you were asking, so let us 
know if not.
