A new snapshot of the cspi-dbus bridge has been released. Together with the Qt 4 D-BUS bindings, it is now possible to write KDE assistive technologies that transparently interact with Qt/KDE applications as well as GTK/GNOME applications.

KDM Accessibility - Henrik - 2004-10-14
Does KDM have the ability to launch access features at this point? It can be very useful, because some people may have a difficult time actually logging in without their specific assistive technology. I believe the new GDM has this support.
Work to be done... - Andre Somers - 2004-10-14
If this is going to be used, there is work to be done to make it actually usable I think. Just look at the third screenshot provided (Kicker; http://trolls.troll.no/~harald/accessibility/accessibility3.png). A whole lot of "no description" labels that make it impossible to actually distinguish anything usefull. I think it will be a lot of work before each and every application can provide usefull information via such an interface.
