What's new in at-spi2-core 1.91.3:
689
* Added a C-based AT-side binding (libatspi) which can be used in
690
conjunction with GObject introspection to generate bindings for other

snapshot than a usable release.

738
What's new in at-spi2-core 0.3.2:

742
removed from the desktop properly.

746
* Set an application's Id when registering it.
