Accessible Scala

Following up on this: the first release of Accessible Scala is out. This is a Scala plugin for screen readers that reads out the code semantically, instead of literally, to make it possible to actually follow it. The linked webpage has links, including a link to an online demo. (The voice for the demo is terrible, but it's a wonder the bear dances at all.)
I'm sure it needs a good deal more TLC before it's really good for the purpose (and the project needs help providing integrations), but it's an excellent step forward, and I'm proud to see the Scala Center driving this forward.
