[rdfweb-dev] css help for foaf spec?

[nicole at apocalypse.org]

I like it, much more legible than a typical outline.  Also no reason it
can't be in outline form structurally and so make sense in a text browser
as well.  You might want to use @import to link the stylesheet or risk the
wrath of the 4.0 browsers.
