hi Gary!

It's great great great you're able to work on FSS. I entered some of these 
issues into JIRA awhile ago so I'll just reference the #s for your to-do list 
below. Feel free to edit/comment as you see fit.

The way I've been fixing fluid issues now is:
-create a git clone of  https://github.com/fluid-project/infusion
-create a local git branch in the clone named FLUID-(number)
-make your changes, add files, commit with -m "FLUID-number: your fix msg"
-push to your own git hub, and do a pull request for the fluid commiters

You might know this already but thought I'd mention it if not :)

1. Use of !important statements makes overriding FSS declarations troublesome 
(results in a requiring a lot of other !important declarations downstream). The 
suggested fix is to remove all uses of !important and allow normal CSS priority.


FLUID-4022<http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-4022> - Reconsider using 
important! tag<http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-4022>


2. Declaration of a global :focus overrides the browser's defualt focus 
behavior in an undesired manner. Unicon works primarily with higher-education 
institutions for whom compliance with accessibility law is a big deal. This 
particular global :focus override issue has come up as a negative with several 
instiutions that want/need the defualt browser behavior. The suggested fix is 
to remove the global :focus declaration.


FLUID-3880<http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-3880> - FSS reset causes 
borders to appear on elements in 
IE8<http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-3880>



3. The FSS "fl-fix" declaration is not a complete box model fix. Across a lot 
of implementations, it has been buggy and required using other solutions. The 
suggested fix is to use jQuery UI's .ui-helper-clearfix instead (drop fl-fix 
from FSS entirely) or update fl-fix to whatever .ui-helper-clearfix is using to 
produce predictable, cross-browser results.

FLUID-4023<http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-4023> - Reconsider 
overflow:auto for containers<http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-4023>



4. Add a greater range of flex (percentage) layouts. FSS provides most of the 
standard percentages, but some implementations have required less-standard 
percentage layouts. The fix is to add more percentage column declarations.


FLUID-4025<http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-4025> - Expand column 
styles to include more options<http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-4025>
