What are your plans for GNOME 2.20 (next 4 months, before feature and UI freezes)?

* Isolate the X11 dependent code.

* Improve the magnifier compositor performance.

* Create an applet to apply colorblind filters.

* Correct the errors when running gnome-mag throw Orca with composite support before the 2.18.2 release, so this could be packaged to Ubuntu 7.04 and other distributions that run GNOME 2.18.

* There are some plans to 2.19 that I had announced, but I don't think that I will implement, they are: Have a test suite; Add XCB protocol suppport; Isolate the IPC/RPC dependent code; Support D-BUS IPC. This is due the lack of time and lowered priority due user necessities.

What are your plans for GNOME 2.22 (next year)?

* Develop an X extension so gnome-mag and Window Composite Managers can run together.

* Study how to generate SVG representation from XRender calls, so magnified letters can be much more sharpen.

Do you have plans for a future release?

* Support GDI.

Do you have any goals from 2.18 that were not achieved? Why?

* I would like to have had a better font smooth algorithm, but I don't had enough time to make the initial implementation that is in bugzilla functional.

Is there something that is really missing in our infrastructure or platform that would help you?

* Nothing I can recall for now.

Do you have plans to work on other modules not maintained by you? What are they?

* Yes, I pretend to contribute with Orca and AT-SPI this year.

Do you have any GNOME-wide goals suggestions for the next releases?

* No.
