Cursor tracking on eZoom - Ready for testing

["Fernando H. F. Botelho" <my lists f123 org>]

Hi everyone,

My apologies for not keeping up with this list, but today I saw a 
question on cursor tracking on the list digest that I can help with. I 
suspect I did not post this news here, a few months ago when I should have.

Last year, the F123 Project made a donation to the Gnome Foundation for 
improvements on the Gnome GUI for low vision users. Specifically, the 
F123 team asked for cursor and focus area tracking on eZoom, a Compiz 
Fusion plugin available to the more than 14 million world-wide users of 
the Gnome GUI.

Alejandro Leiva, the developer with whom we have been working on this 
initiative, already made available code for developers interested in 
testing the new and improved eZoom. This is the first step in the 
process of potential inclusion of these improvements in the F123 System 
and every other distribution that uses Compiz Fusion.

If you are a software developer and would like to test the new eZoom, 
you can find Alejandro's GIT repository at this URL:
https://github.com/gloob/compiz-accessibility-plugin

You can also find Alejandro's version of eZoom at this URL:
https://github.com/gloob/gloob-Ezoom-fork

To give Alejandro feedback, please contact him at this e-mail address:

Thank you in advance for your feedback,

Fernando
