What is AT-SPI2
===============

AT-SPI2 is a D-Bus based accessibility framework. It defines a D-Bus
protocol for providing and accessing application accessibility
information. The project includes a library for bridging the D-Bus
protocol to the ATK API, allowing Gtk based applications to be made
accessible. It also contains a client (AT) side library in C and a wrapper
for Python.


What's changed in AT-SPI 2.9.2

* [core] Fix D-Bus introspection for GetActions.

* [core] Use glib-mkenums to generate enum types, and use these generated types
   for role and state names, rather than static tables.

* [core] Annotate filter in atspi_register_device_event_listener with allow-none
   (BGO#700237).

* [core/pyatspi] Rename various functions to avoid name collisions
   (BGO#700243). The old functions are deprecated in favor of the renamed
   functions and renamed for introspection.

* [atk] Fix a memory leak in the socket adaptor (BGO#696733).

* [atk] Fix various DBusError leaks (BGO#698951).

* [atk] Fix crash when a main loop is shut down repeatedly (BGO#699554).

* [atk] Suppress a warning if an app returns NULL when referencing a child.
