I agree entirely.  This work is not easy and it would be easier not to do
it, but nearly a week of digging has found only one program that is under an
FSF-style free software licence and I think that is rather more limited in
scope.  (For them, some WAI checking is just a little demo application of
their program.) It looks like others are now helping out with looking,
contacting W3C, etc, so maybe they'll spot anything I've overlooked.  Have
you found any?  There's certainly nothing suitable on accessiblog that I
saw.
