Well this thread is all about the Drupal version 8 - first impressions and insights: Sharing ideas from early adopters

Dries wrote an interesting article:

Currently drupal.org doesn't have themes/designers competition and just to be clear to all: Example:
www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Design-Challenge/2011-Gallery.aspx

DotNetNuke CMS has the "Design Challenge Competition" so vote this idea so it would be add on e.g: drupal.org/competitions/Theme

But to be clear, this competition must have rules in it and those rules are going to take place if this idea got the highest votes and this will improve drupal.org entirely =).

Drupal is a highly accessible CMS, but it misses on several key points that need to be addressed. A lively conversation and stern commitment to accessibility needs to be fundamental to Drupal development.

I'm currently building a Multi Site Drupal for the office for equity and diversity at a large university (NDA effective...). I finished an accessibility audit with their accessibility expert today and he had the following to say regarding Drupal Accessibility:

... [T]here are some issues that make its use tedious, and other functions that require a more advanced knowledge of the JAWS screen reader.

Specifically, the issues that we discovered were:

1. Lack of heading tags for functionality. Every major function should be labeled with an appropriately leveled heading tag to ensure that screen reader users can easily navigate to useful fields. (An example of where Drupal fails on this is the in URL aliasing)
2. Some buttons to not respond appropriately to Enter or Space keys. I'm looking at you "Upload" button for files and images in content editing pages.
