We have to fix the css naming for the dispatcher.

[22:50] tscherler: [22:05] _Gav_: What concerns has cheche with this
[22:50] tscherler: he said is way to verbose and I share this concern
...
[22:50] tscherler: pelt has too much css files
...
[22:51] _Gav_: ok, so simplify it to one css file maybe
...
[22:51] tscherler: we should try to have one/two static css and one dynamic css contract
...
[22:52] tscherler: further the naming is sometimes really spacy
[22:52] tscherler: we should follow
...

[22:53] tscherler: when ever possible
[22:53] tscherler: The task involved are:
[22:54] tscherler: 1) reduce css files (merge the files)
...
[22:54] tscherler: 2) rename css elements and the corresponding structurer hooks/contracts

> The current CSS implementation needs a bit of a cleanup, some tweaking and optimization. It needs to be improved and some styles converted to % in order to cater for different browsers and user resolutions. A more fluid design needs to be the outcome. The overall style and look and feel of the current pelt skin is to largely remain the same where possible whilst implementing these improvements. The style sheets are to remain CSS1 valid and aim for CSS2 valid. When XHTML2 is implemented perhaps CSS3 can be achieved.
