And I would add the following for those who also want to look at some of the
source materials and find some easy to use and handy checklists.

- The Web Accessibility Initiave of the W3C:
http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/

- Some free software for testing your own sites: http://www.cast.org/bobby/

And, if there is any interest, I have even written a couple of shorter
checklists and guidelines for implementing WAI. These are unpublished at this
time. I can either publish them, if there's a lot of interest, or send copies
as attachments to those few who may want to see them. (Contact me offline, if
you're interested.)
