What's changed in AT-SPI2 0.1.1
==============================

Fixes (Core):
          * Replace use of dbind_emit_signal with direct libdbus
            call in application cache update.
            Fix for bug:
                    http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23029
         
          * Fix problem with signature assignment and iter
            initialization in dbind signal sending.

          * Modify the incorrect use of dbind_emit_signal_va.
            Check for NULL args in dbind_marshall_any.
            Fix for bug:
                    http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23027

          * Remove *.pc files from source tarballs.
           
          * Remove python check from configure.ac.
            Python is not needed for at-spi2-core.
           
          * Link DRoute against D-Bus GLib.

Fixes (ATK):

          * Add ATK libraries to cspi LIBADD.
            Fixes build problems on OpenSUSE.

          * Removal of Accessible objects is now handled properly.
            Object removal causes signal to be emitted.
   
          * Fix signature of keyboard event registration
            when key array is empty.
           

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.


Where can I get more information about AT-SPI2

What's changed in AT-SPI2 0.1.2
===============================

Pyatspi2:
          * Add check using PID to check that the application
            using pyatspi does not call itself. This is because the
            D-Bus calls are not currently re-entrant.

          * Add a non-cached version.

          * Refactoring for a more configurable pyatspi.

          * New repository created as pyatspi moved from at-spi2-atk.

Fixes (Core):
          * Add participation in Gnome session management.

          * Remove the droute calls the registry daemon now only
            depends on libdbus. Move the dbind and droute libraries
            to at-spi2-atk.

          * Change the name of the registry daemon so that it does not
            conflict with the CORBA version.

          * Remove the .service file as the registryd is started
            by D-Bus activation.

          * Remove libdbind calls from the registryd. Remove libdbind
            from LDADD.

Fixes (ATK):
          * Add the droute and dbind libraries as static libraries
            within this repository. Previously these were shared
            libraries in at-spi2-core.

          * Add --enable-relocate option
   
            This option is similar to what we did for AT-SPI/CORBA.  
            The default value is to not enable relocation.  If
            enabled, however, the atk-bridge module is relocated and a
            *.desktop file is installed to initialize GTK_PATH in
            gnome-session so the new module can be found by GTK+.

          * Only install *.desktop file if GTK_MODULE_DIR is used for
            relocating

          * Fix gtk_module_init to always return a value

          * Abort loading the module if NO_AT_BRIDGE is set and non-0.
            Ported from CORBA at-spi.

          * Remove cspi from the builds as it is not currently
            functional.

          * Add desktop file so that the ATK bridge GTK modules
            environment variable is set properly by Gnome-session.

          * Update the accessible adaptor for use without client side
            caching. Add a method to get the interfaces supported by
            an accessible.

          * Remove pyatspi and the pyatspi tests that have been moved
            out into a separate repository.

          * Add missing headers.
            Fix marshalling state set of accessible objects.

          * Remove memory leaks cause by non de-referenced messages.
