This brings up another question I've had about licensing. These tools from Yahoo are released under a BSD license. If I were to include one of these tools in my module or theme, could it ever be included in Drupal since Drupal requires the GPL for modules and themes? (at least I think I read that somewhere).

So what does everyone think?
Upon my initial review, I'm liking this. With 3 files, it would be relatively easy to ensure cross browser compatibility among basic design and layout.
- grids.css - makes it super easy to specify a 1 - 4 column website.
By default this is fixed width for 800x600 browsers, but you could easily tweak this.
- font.css - normalizes fonts across browsers
- reset.css - normalizes elements across browsers (h1, ul, li,
etc...), dealing with spacing and sizing
I think for many designs, these are pretty useful base CSS files to build upon. I plan on testing these out in 2 upcoming sites I'm working on.
And yes, the obvious caveat, this will never replace a true designer, but for something quick and easy, I don't think you can go wrong.
