Firefox plug-in for Scala?

[ChristopherMBalz]

If Scala could live in a Firefox plug-in, it could use the browser's DOM and avoid many issues that have plagued Java applets.  It would also be a step toward offering a much-needed alternative to or replacement for JavaScript.

Where can I find out more on Scala, Scala-to-C++, and Scala + w3.org DOM Level 3?  Thank you in advance.
