To help clarify accessibility issues and define accessibility solutions, 
the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) develops 
<http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro//WAI/intro/components#guidelines>guidelines 
that are international standards for Web accessibility.

ISO remains the international standards organization. Their molasses pace
doesn't match ours. But -- I'd rather we avoid the presumption that we do
international standards.
