Accessibility/Comparisons:AT SPI To UA
AT-SPI interfaces to Universal Access
This page attempts to give an overview of most of AT-SPI's interfaces, and how they map to Universal Access.
Note that it's not complete, and if you are considering to implement UA support, your main reference should always be Apple's official documentation. You are encouraged to add, and edit entries to help out.
