 > mrmazda: I like much more concrete solutions, summarized in a few words
 or a patch

 I would not mind contributing patches if there were a policy statement
 somewhere defining the goal in a way that could make me believe effort I
 would make would not be futile. Given history on the subject generally
 involving Máirín Duffy and others in website mailing list discussion, I
 have to be skeptical.

 The subject says "much too small". To me, correction of that big a problem
 won't be solved by a modest change from .76 to .85 on the body rule, doing
 a little consequent adjusting, then saying a complete solution is in
 place.

 I opened http://stg.fedoraproject.org/ just now. Without having been there
 before to know it was worse, the results look only typical of the rude web
 generally. .85 is still too small, particularly for gray text as in #four-
 fs that takes three hits of Ctrl-+ in FF to get the text size up to 100%
 of optimal in compensation for the suboptimal contrast.

 What I really wanted to see on s.f.o post-fiddling is d.f.o content
 fiddled, but I couldn't find a way to get there. I want to see if the
 problem in the following is gone: \\
