Do our characters still accumulate skill points during down time?
If yes, can skill trainings be completed during down time and is the next skill in the queue started?

Yes, your skill training continues during down time. New skills from the skill queue can be started during down time as well.
In the days before the skill queue you had to make sure your current skill didn't end during down time since you couldn't log on to change it. But today you just need to make sure your skill queue is filled.
http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=621 This blog announcing the training queue doesn’t explicitly say a skill will start in down-time, but rather anytime in the next 24 hours – down-time being daily will occur somewhere in that time frame.
Also make sure to plan LONG skilling during extended maintenance, since they tend to last much much longer than you might have expected :P ie last datacenter migration which lasted 24 hours instead of 6 ;)
Always have EXTRA skilling planned when the game is about to go down for something different than daily maintenance ;)
