There is very good accessibility infrrastructure in Debian, and an active
mailing list to discuss accessibility issues.

For those who are concerned about Gnome 2.24 not being in Debian Unstable, I
would respectfully suggest paying attention to what is happening in Debian
development at the moment: they are preparing for a release, currently
scheduled for 14 February, as a result of which, Unstable is in feature freeze
at the moment. New versions of packages are being placed in the Experimental
repository.

After the release, you'll see a lot of updates arriving in Unstable very
quickly, and I'm confident that Gnome 2.24 won't be far behind.
