I didn't realize until now, but taking into account that your reports
are really related with accessibility (specially this one), would you
mind to send your reports also to [email protected].
For example: I'm not sure if Eitan (Caribout maintainer) or Mike Gorse
(at-spi2 maintainer) are subscribed to gnome-shell-list.
And as you mention javascript and at-spi, during the last weeks Mike
Gorse and Joseph Scheuhammer were working on improving javascripts
support for libatspi2.

Onscreen Keyboard- Weekly Report 10
I started the week off rewriting my implementation for the message
tray show/hide feature by creating counter that takes into account
lock/unlock and getting rid of the extraneous variables that were
making the program a bit inconsistent. With Meta.later_add I was
quickly able to get rid of some shell warnings about allocation cycles
that had been a part of my previous branch release. Then after 4 hours
of rebasing back onto GNOME master I got my next challenge from Dan.
He wants me to convert the current Caribou GTK3 input module into just
a generic GTK module using ATK instead of GtkIMContextSimple and
install it into the GTK module directory. So, I spent a day trying to
figure out where the modules were kept and how to install it into the
correct place. Then I spent another day studying AT-SPI, ATK, and GTK
API to learn a little bit more about what I needed to get done, since
up until this point I've spent most of my time on javascript
generation rather than interlacing APIs. As a side note, I fixed the
chat bubble, which I realized was moving the focus too early (and I
wasn't able to type into it) and which I was creating too small of an
allocation to place it in.
Basically, I had a lot of new challenges on my plate for the week and
I feel content in what I managed to finish. I was able to get the GTK
module to the point where I just need to find a couple more methods (I
think) to correctly get it hiding/showing properly on button presses
into text boxes. Since, it is coming down to the last two weeks of my
internship I think that I'd like to spend most of my remaining time
working on perfecting the GTK module and cleaning up some of the code
that didn't end up being used in the project.
I learned so many new things this week, such as:
/How amazing this website is http://developer.gnome.org//
/<danw> ok, so if you do ctrl+alt+f2 to get to a console window, and
log in there, you can do
<danw> gdb -p `pidof lt-gnome-shell-real`/
