Or if this isn't feasible, we should at least encourage operating system
distributions to create test packages.

Debian, for instance, already has some, but they need to be updated.

I can just imagine the complaints on the Orca list and elsewhere if that were
done from those who wanted a stable system but upgraded, found themselves
running AT-SPI2 inadvertently, and discovered that it didn't work reliably for
them.

If both can be included, I would keep the existing code as the default for
Gnome 2.30, with a configuration option to switch to AT-SPI2.

I would like to see packages for the new infrastructure as soon as
practicable from distributors.
