Up and to work early. Spent all morning fixing LSR gdm login regressions. Used the afternoon to think about a AT-SPI accessibility validator plug-in for Accerciser. Something that generates a report about what accessibility gaps exist in a GUI. Maybe different schemas for gtk accessibility, document accessibility, identifying areas of an application for scripting, etc.

Contributed to a discussion about live regions on the Mozilla accessibility list. Talked a bit about concurrent audio (ala my thesis) and customization (ala LSR). Gave Charles Chen some pointers about how to do concurrent speech with any text to speech engine supporting SAPI.

Home and out immediately to Lowes and Home Depot. Hope to finish the backyard this weekend. Home again to water the sod in the dark. We really need some rain. Water bill is going to be HUGE.
