Subject: [Athen] Accessibility Issues with Google Apps?

Our university  is looking at making Google apps available as a tool for
instructors, and integrating links to it as part of Angel.  As a screen
reader user myself, I've played briefly with Google Apps, and my
experience is that it isn't ready for prime time yet in terms of
accessibility.  I'm going to express those thoughts to my
administration, but I wonder if there are already any documents or
articles on the web that I can cite to support my point?

Thanks,
