The Zendalona team, which develops free and open-source accessibility software for visually-impaired users, has release an updated version of Accessible-Coconut, an Ubuntu-based Linux distribution with integrated accessibility features. The new version 22.04.3, is based on the latest long-term supported variant of Ubuntu MATE: "It is evident from the feedback received over the past few years that the Accessible-Coconut GNU/Linux operating system represents a significant advancement in enhancing the lives of individuals with visual impairments. Zendalona is pleased to announce the release of Accessible-Coconut 22.04.03, which integrates all the valuable feedback provided by our users. Such responses are expected to continue. The new version comes with two interesting new games - Maths-Tutor and Snakes-and-Ladders. Additional updates in the new version encompass system upgrades, enhanced support for Pidgin Telegram, updates to Coco-Patcher, fixes for eBook-speaker and refreshed files within the user guide. We are thrilled to announce that Zendalona has been accepted into Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2024. This presents a significant opportunity to empower students and drive forward open-source development, particularly in the realm of accessibility."
