I realise this gets discussed every so often, so apologies for
bringing this up once again.

I am looking for a 'free' CMS that has accessibility features, or at
the very least has accessibility in mind.

Currently my top runners are:
PostNuke - http://www.postnuke.com/
Joomla - http://www.joomla.org/
XOOPS - http://www.xoops.org/
TYPO3 - http://typo3.org/
MySource Matrix - http://matrix.squiz.net/

I am leaning toward TYPO3 at the moment.

I would use my own CMS, but it lacks some extra features, and the
up-grade ability, of the larger packages.


Has anyone any thoughts on any of these, including ease of use on the
admin side of things, overall accessibility etc etc.

I haven't yet run any accessibility checks on these systems, but would
appreciate comments from first hand experience of any of these systems.


thanks in advance
