Sure, no problem with that.

I've now updated the document. However, there are some questions that I have 
concerning your comments:

I did not find any documentation about AtkObjectIface. However, I do not know 
if we need this interface as it should be possible to create AtkObjects 
within the bridge.

I did not find any documentation about the Registry.notifyEvent method or 
similar methods within AtkUtil. From what I've read in the on-line 
documentation I understood that the clients (or the broker) install 
event-listeners, so such a method would not needed.
