small, do you agree?
Yes, it's too small. There's a bit of an issue here, which I hope doesn't turn into a massive debate like the XHTML. Basically, for reasons of accessibility and sheer politeness to the user, web pages shouldn't reset the based font-size. They should assume that the default body text size is what the user is comfortable reading. However, because all browsers have set this slightly too large, and because few users actually know how to or bother to change it, most sites that want to look cool and groovy (mea culpa) reduce this, usually to 80%. So we now have a sort of mess across the web, where if you do choose to reduce your default font size, lots of sites will need a microscope to read. I note that our existing gnome.org site does the Right Thing, though it's slightly smaller on my screen than if I set the plone site to 100%. Not sure why that is.
