Lot's of style churn here lately... Ironically the view I get from
libvirt.org has always had slightly bolder and larger text as opposed
the view I get when viewing changes in a local branch. Personally, I
like the larger, bolder text since it's easier to read than some font
style that's meant for a mobile phone.  As long as we don't start adding
graphics and flash, we're good ;-)!

Anyway just a note that patch 3 removes the h1 font-weight bold, but
patch 6 claims all headers except h1 were already bold... Not a big deal
due to the end result, but I assume they should be together.

My only other comment would be regarding  <dt> elements - I would prefer
to see them use a slightly bolder text so that they stand out from the
rest of the text. If I read the tea leaves correctly that would be an
adjustment to the <dt> to have "font-weight: bold;".

Other than that you have an ACK from me...  and it should be safe for
freeze...

John
