Re: [g-a-devel] Speech-dispatcher/orca integration specification, first draft.

I am happy to announce the fourth, and hopefully final draft of the speech-dispatcher/GNOME
Accessibility technologies integration specification, found here:
http://www.themuso.id.au/speech/speech-dispatcher-orca-integration.txt. Please have a read and
give feedback. Changes in this version are as follows:

 * Refer not only to Orca, but all GNOME accessibility technologies that use speech output.
  * This now includes gok and dasher.
 * Attempted to clarify bits and pieces a little more by refactoring wording.

I am in the final stages of drafting a document outlining the work I will be doing as part of the next two Ubuntu
development cycles, leading up to GNOME 3.0, to further the speech cause, and assuming no issues, should
have my work approved by my manager in at most a week. Once approved, I will start work right away.

In the long term interests of making the speech-dispatcher API the standard speech API for Linux, it has
been suggested to me that I look at getting this project hosted at freedesktop, which will give some
immediate benefits:
 * A bug tracker
 * A vcs repository
 * A mailing list for development discussion

Whilst the original home of speech-dispatcher has mailing lists and a vcs repository, there is no bug
tracker so far as I have found, and moving to freedesktop is another way of indicating a willingness to
define a speech API standard. Moving to freedesktop also may draw interest from other parts of the
community to help with the speech API standardization effort. It would also be nice to get
speech-dispatcher into a more useful vcs repository, something other than cvs. :) So if anybody is
reading this and have ties with freedesktop, please contact me, as I'd love to hear from you.

Ok, after some googling, I found it. However so far as I can see, its not linked to on the main
speech-dispatcher project page.

Ok sounds good. I will likely import speech-dispatcher cvs into git, so I am happy to help with this conversion.

Ok, great news.

I hope to have speech-dispatcher into a git repo by the end of next week. I am also happy to help with
converting other repositories as well.

GtkLinkButton doesn't implement neither HyperLink nor		HyperText interface


Hey guys

I found the Gtklinkbutton doesn't implement HyperLink interface, 
but the click action on the button is sufficient, so I believe it's a
bug on GAIL, 
and I reported as bgo586201,
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=586201

looking forwarding to seeing replies.  :)
