If CrossDesktop DevRoom is THE place for cross-desktop entente, then
why have I seen no discussion about this event on any FreeDesktop mail
forum? I only notice GNOME mailing lists in the current cc:list, or am
I missing something?

I would argue that if all the widgets dealing with text really have
the same needs, they should really support the same interface in GTK+,
and there should be no need to write n adaptors for widget-with-text
to atktext, but instead just one for text-widget-interface to atktext.
And id
each stock and custom widgets directly
and separately. This adds a lot of code to the AT program, you see.

A main reason that there are multiple sets of interfaces is to make the

amount of effort has been invested over the years to make GNOME and KDE
accessibility interoperable. By making both GNOME and KDE talk to the

That's actually a good point. The idea is that we will bring people

I give a +1, but I think there should be another goal. To invest some

I think this is a great plan, and will do much to benefit GNOME's ISV
story. I notice that the Project Ridley page doesn't make any mention
of a11y. Obviously moving/renaming widgets from libraries like libegg
and libgnome* will affect libgail, which I think should be considered part
