    Description

      Using only a Red/Green/Amber ball to indicate publishing status is an accessibility problem, as nearly 10% of men are afflicted with some color blindness, most commonly an inablitiy to distinguish red from green. (See http://webdesign.about.com/od/accessibility/a/aa062804.htm for information.)

      Using different shapes or some sort of textual representation would make this part of the system more usable for these folks.
