A quick comment about standards compliance, which for me includes WCAG 2.0 AA: 
it's both hard and not-hard. 

It's hard the first time. It's really hard if you're trying to bolt standards 
compliance onto a project that's already mostly designed and built.

Once you've got your head around what's involved and built your patterns of 
thought and libraries of code, though, it's just another aspect of what you do.

I'd love to see more developers around who have standards compliance "in their 
bones".

If you have the resources, getting a solid external audit of your work is an 
amazing eye opener.

(For the record, I'm usually in the position of commissioning code and then 
tailoring/managing it, not cutting it from scratch. Only one of the sites I run 
is currently compliant. I'm working on the others, including actively on the 
main one.)

Cheers,
  Jennifer
