Great! What I like to do is to list differences in the implementations and document them in detail. The goal is reconciliation, so we can avoid unnecessary incompatibilities. (E.g. casing-width which is different in JOSM and Halcyon at the moment.) I'm not sure, wiki.mapcss.ru is a good domain for "the mapcss project". It gives the false impression that it is Russia-centric whereas it involves people from all over the world. For the time being, I can live with the OSM wiki just fine. When the individual features are clearly specified, we can package them, similar to svg-basic and svg-tiny.
