Is there a tutorial on Scala 2.10's reflection API yet?

Question

Is there a good place to get a thorough tutorial of Scala 2.10's reflection API? I see lots of blog posts written over the course of the last two years, but many of the details of these posts are already out of date.

Now that 2.10 is publicly available, is there any document that will walk me through how reflection works?

This question should be re-opened, it is asking about facts: where are good sources to learn about Scala reflection. — jhegedus, Feb 18 '14 at 16:14
@jhegedus No, it should not. Stack Overflow is explicitly not for recommendation requests. — Andrew, Jun 01 '15 at 17:05

Check out the official reflection guide at http://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/reflection/overview.html. Thanks a lot to Heather Miller who took time to assemble it!

Other sources available are: 1) the slides from one of my talks, 2) Daniel Sobral's blog posts, 3) Scaladoc links on the stub pages accessible via the URL provided above, 4) and Stack Overflow answers. I might've missed something here, please let me know if that's the case.

There is some links that come up when you search for it in the Scala Documentation site, but not much.
