For example WCAG (both the March 1999 and final versions) stop at 1.5, but you have 1.6 - 1.9! (And that's only the most obvious disconnect.) Can you please explain where your questions came from? Thanks! Great article, but even after reading the comments I cannot reconcile your numbering with WCAG 1.0 Checkpoints!

Section 5.3 of the guide does allow for tables for layout, however it is also regarded as a Priority 2 requirement. I need to follow up the article with a comparision to the Priority 2 (Level “AA”) compliance.

Hopefully the article will help people understand how MOSS 2007 has improved, but also that it is not a silver bullet and still needs improvement.

What about using tables for layouts - you didn't mention it. Good article (and similar to my old one on accessability in sps2003). What about using tables for layouts - you didn’t mention it.
