Accessibility resources

[personal profile] jadelennox's comment in news, asking me if I'd like to discuss more WAI-ARIA options for the update page made me realize that though I've been reading up on the basics, there's still a lot I don't know, and I am not nearly enough familiar enough with the landscape to figure out what the best resources are.

So, lazyweb, what are your favorite resources for accessibility, with a focus on web development? Blogs, lists*, irc channels*, webpages, reports, books, etc. I have a bunch of tabs open right now for reading, but more links are always welcome.


* caveat that the lists and channels are comfortable having new people and lurkers *g*

I know it's Drupal, but this page has links to other resources, and Everett Zufelt really helps (me, at least) to think about better pactices.

I hope you find it helpful to see how another project is trying to work on Accessibility issues.

Other links, you probably have, but just in case:
