Great theme, love the CSS table of contents. Great that you've documented the validation. Great base for other work!

What do you think about http://www.sidar.org/hera/index.php.en validation?

I'm glad you enjoy the theme. I've looked into the HERA validation and it seems like the notices about Framework are things that should be taken care of by the user (keyboard shortcuts, etc) or things that are in the core drupal code (form renderings, etc).

Thanks for reviewing the HERA validation. I've run across a few recently, best of them I've found is actually this one http://wave.webaim.org/

None I've seen are based on WCAG 2.0 though.

Probably the keyboard shortcuts will have to be managed by a module like:

As fixed shortcuts are problematic.

And yes, Framework is my preferred theme to start with when I'm doing theming work. I highly recommend it to my team.

Testing at http://d-theme.com/framework. Passed all tests except WCAG. Total Validator found one WCAG (WAI) level A problem, improperly nested headings. The following heading could be changed to a h2 to fix the problem.
<h3>User login</h3>

Well, a block title certainly should not be an h2. The validator says this because the left sidebar precedes the content area, which contains h2 titles. If source ordering were applied to this theme, which would make it quite a bit more complex to develop for, this issue would be fixed. Currently, I feel the choice to implement source ordering is best left up to the user. An example on how to implement source ordering for Framework can be seen here: http://drupal.org/node/321566
