Evening Folks Just to let all interested parties know that I'm putting this particular idea on hold for the time being. This is primarily as a result of changes that are happening upstream in Gnome, and until things have settled down there, I don't feel right comfortable with demonstrating Ubuntu at this event, especially with it's emphasis on accessability
The first is the movement away from the CORBA inter process messageing interface to DBus, and the uncertainty over which video effects system is to be used - metacity being the favoured one at the moment, but there is also serious talk about integration with Compis. This together with today's announcement that the current sole developer and maintainer of the Gnome Magnifier has had to back away from this project for personal reasons. There is also the problem that Ubuntu's own Accessability team has appeared to have decrease to one individual who is dealing with all those aspects that directly relate to Ubuntu's integration of accessability is making me feel real uncomfortable. If things improve before end of January, which is when registration for this event closes, I will post an update. I would like to thank again all those who have expressed a desire to help with this event. It was, and still is, my desire to show Ubuntu off at it's best, and at the moment things are too changeable to be comfortable with.
