I'm not sure if you're suggesting that the css-d wiki pages themselves are outdated and full of
hacks, or that they contain references to methods to support outdated browsers. This latter is true,
but "works in IE 6 at minimum" is not my idea of the best way to approach building a webpage. (I
tend more toward the - make it work everywhere else and then get it to work in IE6 if possible -
school of thought.)

If what you're suggesting is that you would completely redo the wiki to eliminate anything that you
thought didn't fit with your philosophy of web design (etc.) then I for one object completely. No
offense meant, but the css-d wiki is a 3-4 year compliation of the best css minds that I know. I am
not familiar with you or your work techniques, but I have a great deal of respect for the people who
have already contributed to the css-d wiki.
If you feel that your information can exist with what is already complied in the css-d wiki, then
feel free to add a page or pages of your "best practice" information for the rest of us to look
over. Realize that we would all be able to edit or add to is as we see fit, however, as is the
nature of a wiki. If this is not acceptable, by all means start your own and post a link to it
somewhere in an appropriate section of the css-d wiki.
Cheers,
