1) From the Penn State Web Standards User Group
iCITA (U of Illinois) released a new "Functional Accessibility Evaluator" which checks for both standards and accessibility

Reports are said to be more concise (they are more understandable, in my opinion).
2) From Elizabeth's International pages
I posted a page about Braille and Unicode at
http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/international/bylanguage/braille.html
There is information about Braille & Braille hardware/software in generall as well as Braille in Unicode.
