Even though some new systems do have True Type fonts installed by default
(including Arial), most of the systems do NOT have them, and do use
helvetica as the standard font. Therefore i do agree with something like:
    
 <font face="Arial, Helvetica"> 

or possibly (and thinking about the windows users visiting gnome.org
(which will be a lot, as they are already)), including verdana, with

 <font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica">

In my oppinion (and also considering fonts), i think 8pt fonts are a good
size for such a web page because they are not too small, but also not big
at all, and do fit any resolution nicely from 640x480 to 1900... I'd like
to know what you guys think about this size. (Note that this is the
equivalent to font size 1)
