Re:
Rendering issue: Not done
After the introduction of new layout,
many persons reported a font size or
rendering problems under some browsers
configurations and screen resolutions.
These problems should be investigated
and fixed.
I would be happy to give the above a go.
Where would I find the reported issues?
