Done with JS and CSS.

Completely agree, browser-specific prefixes are very messy.

Completely agree with “Widgets are not List”. It can result in many nested lists that are hard to CSS and I don’t see a good semantic reason why you should build a widget area (or sidebars in general) as a List. I mean sure they are a list of Widgets, but the main content area is also a list of posts; do you want to wrap that in a <ul> as well?

You live and breathe WordPress themes. You are equally at home in Photoshop/Gimp, PHP, CSS, or the terminal. You’ve built numerous WordPress-as-CMS sites from scratch. Everything you’ve touched is GPL. You’ve probably written a theme framework [...]

And indeed, Ian Stewart is the rightest person for that position. Congratulations, Ian!

Now I wonder what the changes to ThemeShaper will be…
