Ok, I am confused then... If GTK# is already modular as you claim and if
Mike is willing to offer a migration path for his current apps, I don't see
why all this discussion is taking place... There should not be any technical

It will be 2.16 - except for new modules which are not yet
in FC. Of course, most (all ?) of the new modules under consideration
are available in Fedora Extras anyway.

By the way, libgail-gnome is unchanged from Gnome 2.14, but maintained
(no known bugs at this time). Please include it in the 2.16 release,
noting any issues in bugzilla (component atk/gail or at-spi/general;
libgail-gnome doesn't have its own bugzilla category ATM).

Hi Sean, Will,
If I might chime in... I think either of Will's proposals is fine for
GNOME 2.16, with a slight preference to #2 - to move users to launching
AT at startup just like the launch other apps at startup.

Hi Shaun:
I think we've all agreed that we want to replace Gnopernicus with Orca
and I think we all agree that the accessibility dialog needs work. I do
not believe the work for the two must be coupled.

The system bus (>=0.90) needs to be running and accessible by the
build. We need to remove this dependency in the future. The quick fix
is to build outside of jhbuild and copy the
dbus-bus-introspect.xml into the tools directory in D-Bus's jhbuild build root.

Tangential to this, there was an awesome BOF at GUADEC about

like this. Has there been any news on that front that I missed? :)

gtksourceview has been finally branched for gnome 2.14. No new features

to update the Release Notes page of the wiki [1].
