Hi, I'm also posting to GNOME Accessibility List because others can also be interested. Sorry for not being more clear about the two magnifiers.
GS-mag is a new magnifier being developed inside GnomeShell (GS) as a plugin. With GNOME 3.0 GS will be the default desktop and compositor. Gnome-mag is also a compositor, so it doesn't interact well with GS, but there will be some users that will not be able to run GS and will need gnome-mag. What we already have done is a default D-BUS interface that GS-mag and gnome-mag implements (there are some minor bits that need adjustments, like names, some missing methods for one magnifier or the other). With this, the scenario will be: If GS is running and the user start Orca, it will use GS-mag, otherwise gnome-mag will be activated. Hope this make the plans for the future cleaner.
