Groklaw features story of new Screenreader from IBM

Groklaw.net, most famous for its in-depth coverage of the SCO vs IBM lawsuit, features an story on the Linux Screen Reader from IBM. The application summary states that the core of the system is the AccessEngine, a message pump that receives events via the Assistive Technology Service Provider Interface (AT-SPI) on the GNOME desktop. The commands available for controlling the screen reader are determined by cascading scripts that completely define the user experience.
