> Which idea of accessability should be imposed? Yours? Mine?
 
There are clearly defined "ideas" of accessibility for most countries - such
as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0:
http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/

Or Section 508 in the case of America:
http://www.section508.gov/

In Australia, for example, web accessibility hinges on the Disability Act of
1992
http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/cth/consol_act/dda1992264/

And is backed up by HEREOC's "World Wide Web Access: Disability
Discrimination Act Advisory Notes":
http://www.hreoc.gov.au/disability_rights/standards/www_3/www_3.html#s3_3

"In June 2000, the Online Council, representing the Commonwealth and all
State and Territory governments, agreed that the Worldwide Web Consortium's
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 will be the common best practice
standard for all Australian government websites."

All this will change soon when WCAG2 hits the stands  :)

Thanks
