" On a side note, development related to accessibility for Drupal and Joomla have been minimal in recent years while the WordPress development world is going
gang-busters and has an active team of dedicated volunteers who are continuously improving the core and testing templates. Hence my move to WP and away
from the other two CMSs."

This is strictly not true for Drupal. It just happens to be pretty slow at major releases. 8.0 has been in development for several years now. Accessibility is a significant focus for Drupal 8. Quite a few people (including Mike Gifford from Canada) have put in a lot of work. That being said, however, Wordpress' rapid release and the recent focus on accessibility makes it seem like they're doing a lot of work. And they are. This combined with its focus on becoming a true CMS--as opposed to just a blogging platform--certainly makes Wordpress a viable platform.
