I've found WebAIM to be a great resource, and the WAVE to be a useful
tool, although it doesn't seem to provide the depth of analysis that the
U-Toronto Accessibility Checker provides (that can be either a drawback
or a benefit, depending on the circumstances :-) ) .

I just got an email from Berkeley Web Accessibility Group pointing me
to WAVE, a tool published by WebAIM which does an automated site
accessibility report, similar to the W3C validation tools.

They have also released a Firefox plug-in that allows for local
evaluations, nothing sent to the server.

I briefly messed about with the plug-in and it seems useful. Perhaps
someone with more experience with accessibility can do a
more thorough evaluation.
Before today, I hadn't heard of WebAIM. Anyone have an opinion about
this group in general? Should we be linking to them? Working with them?
