Some great news on the SharePoint team blog, on foot of making SharePoint DoD compliant, Some background here, SharePoint will now be more accessable for people with disabilites, specifically the visually impaired. I have a physical disability myself, I walk with crutches, and so take a personal interest in this. And there are a lot more like me out there. Very welcome news.
