Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had some pointers towards studies or
initiatives of cities' and towns' use of web technologies as it relates
to interacting with their citizens with disabilities. This could be
anything from studies of how municipalities fare with regards to
accessibility in general to specific initiatives to make Web based
information more accessible to certain types of disabilities (such as
the City of Montreal's controversial portal for people with cognitive
limitations[1]).

Any information would be appreciated.
