Re: fonts size specification

The problem with fonts is relatively minor, and is greater with CSS, 
which allows absolute sizes to be specified eg in points. Although most 
browsers allow an over-ride, and Opera beaves especially nicely, it is 
related to the problem of setting absolute sizes for an XxY screen and 
expecting it to help people if you say 'use a 1500x1200 21" monitor'. It 
doesn't. Having to scroll across and down to read pages is a fast way to 
render them illegible.

in the guidelines thing it is a p3 (may be done - will improve 
accessibility).
