I am a member of WIPA and I am on the WIPA Accessibility email list. I thought I would post this excellent WCAG 2.0 resource that appeared on this list on 17 September 2008:

subject    [WIPA Accessibility] forms and WCAG 2.0

In June I prepared a paper for the WIPA site which compares the accessibility Checkpoints of WCAG 1.0 with the Success Criteria and Techniques in WCAG 2.0. The paper, “Migrating from WCAG 1.0 to WCAG 2.0” can be found at http://wipa.org.au/papers/wcag-migration.htm

Following on from this, I have recently prepared an article that concentrates on making accessible forms. The article provides practical advice and compares the WCAG 1.0 accessibility requirements relating to forms with those contained in WCAG 2.0 and is at http://www.usability.com.au/resources/wcag2/

The article contains 6 video segments where Andrew Downie demonstrates screen readers in action on specific aspects of forms. The videos are also available here:

Without doubt Roger, this is a great resource. Thank you!
