This is a bit off topic, but for those interested the US Department of
Justice is asking for public comment on their "supplemental notice of
proposed rulemaking" around accessibility for public sector web sites.
This set of regulations has had many setbacks and delays since it first
was announced in 2010. Ideally once the public sector rule set is done
it would then be somewhat cloned for the private sector. US court
circuits have been split on whether the ADA applies to web sites so
hopefully these regulations, whenever they come out, would make it clear
that it does. Lainey Feingold, a well known disability rights lawyer
here in the states, has a nice summary on how to file comments either
directly or via the various advocacy groups (AFB, NFB, NAD etc.):
