Hi ! Today I've found that the Consortium Fernando de los Rios for the Knowledge and Information Society [1], supported by the Regional Government of Andalusia in Spain, has awarded some contracts to some local companies for working on a11y (mainly Orca, OCRFeed and Evince stuff).
AFAIK, this iniciative by the Consortium hasn't been notified to any of the projects involved. Though this iniciative is a good thing, I think that this isn't the best way to start a collaboration, because it can interfere with the current projects of some people (For example Mukund Raghothaman GSoC propose or the interest of Javed Shaikh and others for fixing the bug #309015). So, to reduce the risk of overlapping efforts I think it is a good idea to share the information I've found on internet. I translated the details of what they want to do [2]. I hope this is useful.
