Thought about using a Blog rather than bulletin board?
Sounds from your description like itmight be appropriate for what you're
trying to do - www.access-matters.com is a good example of how
commenting can work.  Lots of free Blogging sites out there.

Subject: Accessible bulletin board software

I was planning on using a commercial provider to implement a hosted
bulletin board service for a project I am working on, but it appears to
be inaccessible to screen reading software, and I'm not sure that the
provider can make the changes on a timely basis to make it accessible.
So, I am now looking for another solution, preferably hosted somewhere,
but not absolutely required. It will be used to solicit comments for a
study, and those comments will be publicly viewable. 

Thanks for any information in advance.

James
