Hi,
i think accessibility is getting fairly ok press, but it's quite bad,
although optimistic as the same time.

I say bad press, because when Jacob Nielson said Flash was (*not* is)
99% bad, i think he mentioned usability or accessibility.

Optimistic, because accessibilty is getting some attention. I remember
something about US federal stuff having to comply with some
accessibility guidelines, although my memory may fail me on this
point.

Maybe this could help?
