Interesting idea, people have been asking for something like this for quite a while. - general idea of W3C/WAI providing such a report, good or bad, useful or useless ? I think such a system is valuable. There needs to be the right balance between Mechanical analysis and human analysis. In other words, we do not want people submitting claims without empirical evidence, but at the same time the machines are not always right. Also, what do we do about sites that are served differently for different brrowsers. And if a page has a text alternative page, can the original page be rated accessible? - what to do with the data: public or not, at what stage ? (current model suggest that the data is not public right away but can if nothing is done - with no definition of "nothing") I say keep it private, or send it to EO for fol.low=up. dc
