For tuture versions: 
Some accessibility evaluation tools offered on the web may not even have
the name 'accessibility evaluation tool'. You will have heard about
'sildtide' that claims to evaluate according to W3C guidelines and gives
the most horrible web site a nice figure, sometimes even a 10 (in a range
1-10) and reports 'All webpages were found to be fully compliant with the
W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, and therefore likely not in
violation of the British Disability Discrimination Act.' without any
manual checking. I tried the www.mcdonals.nl a horrible site in terms of
accessibility, but by silktide fully compliant. 

My message is that we should think whether we should something about
non-tools that claims to give a accessibility status of your site.
