I've recently been following a thread on accessibility in ASP.NET - now this is a pretty important subject for any web developer. It is illegal not to make your site accessible and can lead to a hefty fine!

At the moment, ASP.NET pretty much sucks for accessibility - which means ASP.NET pretty much sucks for doing much work for the government / large companies who care (i.e., have to care) about accessibility (no, plain text versions don't qualify - you're still technically discriminating against the user who can't use all the flashy features).

If anyone has any links to publicly available information(i.e., not covered by an NDA) on accessibility in current and future versions of ASP.NET.
