I like it. Actually since we dropped the css support on a contract base
we need a default.css for the viewHelper.xhtml. That is the only reason
why I have not deleted the css stuff out of the contracts.

Something with the above mentioned goals would work great for us right
now. The scale-dev is very nice but I do not have the time to keep the
css in sync with the contracts. The goal for a 0.2 version of the plugin
(I hope to release that before ApacheCon) is not a shiny skin but a
practical, meeting the above mentioned goals.

I am +1 to use your skin as dev version for views this will allow to
concentrate on the contracts and not the css.

Can we use yours? Then I do not have to worry anymore about tweaking the
scale-dev and finally got rid of the css-overhead.

For submitting a skin with view/viewHelper you will need to provide the
following resources (* - required):
a)* default.fv 
b)* default.css
c) additional-contracts (*.ft)

Actually I am thinking about changing the 'default' naming to
{skin-name}.fv/css in the matching code, that will enable different
skins more easy.

WDYT?

Now I cannot put on my future homepage "first page ever done with

Just kidding, congratulations and thanks to show the world what views
can do for you. ;-)

I want it :). That is what we need as base for the viewHelper.xhmtl.
Please submit a patch. :)
