Re: [orca-list] Fedora 24 will use Wayland as default. What about accessibility?

hi
Luckily, wayland is very accessible. There were some bugs that caused
mouse clicks to not work, but I believe these have been fixed by now. I
use gnome running under wayland all the time and have no problems. Mate
doesn't support wayland yet, but they are going to add support, I'm just
not sure when. Joanie knows a lot more than I do about wayland though,
I'm sure she'll chime in.
Thanks
