FYI, bug 387973 proposes to enable Metacity to start gnome-at-visual
when the user types s. If you have other input, then please
comment in the bug.

If you want to manually configure your Metacity, then you can type the
following at shell prompt:

Would it make sense to get performance numbers for local and networked

How will a D-Bus version of AT-SPI handle sudo (local non $USER owned
applications displaying to $DISPLAY) and remote applications ($USER and
non $USER owned applications displaying to $DISPLAY) work?

Thanks Aaron for pointing that out. Yes, we would like to deprecate the

directly use libspi for AT-SPI programming with the C language. Those

Ideally, I would think magnification needs to be in-process to a
compositing window manager via a plugin. Is there a composite manager
plugin standard?
