[Mike Gorse <mgorse alum wpi edu>]

AT-SPI2 1.91.90 is now available for download at:

Notes
=====

The --enable-relocate option has been removed.  It was only intended as a
temporary hack to simplify testing, was hard to set up, and seemed to cause
problems (ie, BGO#641869).  Distributions that still package AT-SPI-CORBA may
want to mark it as conflicting with AT-SPI2.

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 Python.

How can I contribute to AT-SPI2?
================================

We are actively seeking contributors to help us make this the standard
a11y framework for Gnome. 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.
