  Hi,
  
  Mario Fux asked if I could make a release of libqaccessibilityclient. When
  I started this little lib it was seemingly KDE only but with a bit of
  help, mostly from Sebastian Sauer it became a nice little Qt only lib.
 
 FWIW I gave it a look last week and from my I know nothing about the
 domain, it looks good.

Thanks, I'll make a release the next days, we can always bump the major 
version number later.

If someone feels like helping out rolling tarballs or testing them that would 
be appreciated.

Greetings
Frederik


 
 Cheers,

  It makes writing accessibility tools easy by providing a convenient API
  over the rather tedious DBus AT-SPI standard. That means it works with
  Gnome, KDE/Qt apps and potentially others. Simon started to depend on it
  and the KWin focus tracking works with it as well.
  
  There is a fun example app that comes with the lib, it demonstrates a bit
  what the library provides. There are two classes Registry to provide the
  subscription to changes and AccessibleObject which represents one
  widget.
  Together they give a lot of information about running apps and are a nice
  basis for further helpful technology.
  
  The code can be found here:
  git://anongit.kde.org/libkdeaccessibilityclient
  
  I haven't had much time to work on it, but spent a bit of time cleaning it
  up today. The functions are generally documented and I'd be very happy
  about feedback/reviews.
  
  If there are no major blockers/improvement suggestions I'd like to make a
  release soon. If someone is looking for a fun and interesting new task, I
  would be happy with some help to get this baby out.
  
  Greetings,
  Frederik
