Sorry to revive this again, but does anyone have a link to the
discussion of this? My google search is failing me.

It seems strange to me that GTK goes to a lot of trouble to support
accessibility (atk and friends), but then has a homepage which breaks
W3C accessibility guidelines. Other than this issue I really like the
redesign, congrats to all who worked on it.
