Via the contact form at http://NonvisualDevelopment.org Rick asked me some questions about developing accessible web sites with the Drupal content management system from http://drupal.org I hope this information helps him and others interested in this topic. The accessibility of a Drupal site mainly depends on what theme is used. There are themes that comply with Section 508 and/or W3C accessibility standards. Much learning material on Drupal is contained in the collection of text tutorials on content management systems available at http://EmpowermentZone.com/cms_doc.zip The list of accessibility resources below also includes a title from BookShare.org. I think Drupal is a technology worth supporting and using for accessibility, open source, and community reasons!
