Hi David!
Ok, css-zen-garden might not be THE perfect example, but that fact should not 
stand in the way of my question in general. Do you have any nice examples?

My comment regarding css-zen-garden´s divs and spans is:
Well, take away the span tags (they are obsolete as you say), but on the whole 
I think the markup is quite "structured" and free from elements only there for 
deisgn purpose.

Example from css-zen-garden:
"intro" - is holding Introduction information
"pageHeader" - is for the page´s header text
"quickSummary" - is holding Quick Summary text
h1, h2 tags are used for headings
p tags are used for holding paragraphs and chunks of text

And so on...


        <div id="intro">
                <div id="pageHeader">
                        <h1><span>css Zen Garden</span></h1>
                        <h2><span>The Beauty of <acronym title="Cascading Style 
Sheets">CSS</acronym> Design</span></h2>
                </div>

                <div id="quickSummary">
                        <p class="p1"><span>A demonstration of what can be 
accomplished visually through <acronym title="Cascading Style 
Sheets">CSS</acronym>-based design. Select any style sheet from the list to 
load it into this page.</span></p>
                        <p class="p2"><span>Download the sample <a 
href="/zengarden-sample.html" title="This page's source HTML code, not to be 
modified.">html file</a> and <a href="/zengarden-sample.css" title="This page's 
sample CSS, the file you may modify.">css file</a></span></p>
                </div>
...

I'm a little confused. One of the major critisms of CSS Zen Garden is
that it is laden down with vast numbers of divs and spans which are
there solely to hook CSS onto.

  <h1><span>css Zen Garden</span></h1>

for example. Isn't that what you are trying to avoid?
