You can also check out IBM's site for information. They took over the Bobbie 
and Watchfire projects.

And, check out the eclipse accessible framework at

Hopefully with Microsoft moving towards standardizing their browser with 
Internet Explorer 8, everything will improve. A lot of sites are coded 
horribly to comply with old IE browsers, but it seems that times are 
changing.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Making the web accessible.
