Downloadable API server for Wave

Hello,
I am an employee at CloudBees, one of the leading contributors to the
Jenkins-ci.org community, and looking for help on 2 fronts.

First, Jenkins is a build automation tool with a web GUI and as such, we
would like to make that web GUI 508 compliant. The product is secured, so I
am looking for a means of automatically crawling the pages of the
application and am assuming this would preclude using the web based API.
The "Downloadable API Manager (coming soon)" seems like what I want. Does
anyone know an ETA for the coming soon aspect of the tool or know of a
viable alternative?

Second, since Jenkins is a build automation tool, we would be interested in
adding an automation framework for 508 testing and HTML validation within
Jenkins. Would this be something I could do with the Wave API Manager and
does anyone out there have any experience automating 508 compliance testing?

Thanks for your help,
Gus
