Jody,
What would you like to see achieved with the CSS?
If we provide a wish list, people with CSS expertise might find it
easier to step in and fix a few things for us.

Thanks Cameron;
I do invite anyone with better knowledge of CSS then me (that should
be everyone) to have a review of the template used for the overview
and quickstart. I was not able to get as closed to the OSGeo standard
documentation look and feel as I would like.
It is enough to get us something on screen however.
There was also a two column "overview" example which did not make it
to the email list; the content needed from each product remains the
same.

I forgot to mention that Jody put together some great Quick Start
documentation, including screen grabs, for FOSS4G, in Open Office format,
which can be cut and pasted into the OSGeo Live documentation.
I've copied the documentation here:
ftp://ftp.a2end.com/UPLOADS/FriendlyIntroductionToGeospatial/
The following projects have been covered:
FriendlyTour.odt:
* GeoNetwork
* Deegree
* Mapserver
* GRASS
* Open JUMP
* KOSMO
* gvSIG
* qGIS
FriendlyPostGIS.odt
* PostGIS
FrindlyIntroduction.odt
* UDig
* GeoServer
FriendlyEditing.odt
* GeoServer

Again with the help of Jody, we have defined the OSGeo Live Quick Start
template which I'm hoping most applications will follow.
These quick starts are aimed to help a new user try the application for
the first time and should describe how to run one core function from an
application in ~ 5 minutes.
How to write the Quick Start is described here:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Add_Project#Application_Quick_Start
An example Quick Start source is here:
https://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/livedvd/gisvm/trunk/doc/quickstart/udig_quickstart.rst
I've attempted to make it very easy to write these docs by providing lots
of comments and tips. So I'm hoping most projects can create these documents
relatively easily.
We have a documentation freeze in just over a week, so now is the time to
write Project Overviews (mandatory) and Project Quick Starts (highly
desirable)
