I don't know what the agreement is with the text links that are in there
now. Olivier?

It's still using fixed font sizes. Don't do that. Use 100% for default
fonts and, I would say, between 80% and 200% for other fonts.
I have tried putting everything at 100%, h1..5 at 140%, and download at
150%. The restult looks ok to me, but you may want to make some
non-content parts a bit smaller.

Very nice indeed. I was wondering if the sidebar size should be relative
as well. 13em for the container, 12em for the menu seems to work fairly
well.
Also, maybe we could just use liguid layout with a maximum-width. I
personally would prefer not to have alternative stylesheets. Something
like this:
#global-page {
width: 100%;
max-width: 70em;
}
I just stole your site and made these changes, it looks like this:

Used css files: http://www.loculus.nl/xfce/nick.xfce.org/css.tar.gz
What do you think?
