There are already work in progress about it. Mark Doffman is working in a qt-atspi2-bridge, a equivalent to gnome atk-atkspi2-bridge, but using (AFAIK) those IA2 interfaces. Jeremy Whiting (jpwhiting) talked about it in a blog post [1], and pointed to the current qt-atspi2-bridge repository [2], right now hosted by codethink. > If anyone knows how to contact the guys at Nokia/Trolltech let me > know.

As I said, right now the "man" to get in contact about this issue is Mark Doffman.
