    Okay, this seems to be a nice thing but there are several performance issues:

    - page execution ~1.80s from MODX – is all cached?
    - css-files should be served as static files, at least all styles you can deliver statically.
    - minify all css and js-files to save filesize.
    - jQuery 1.3.2? Really? Use 1.7.1 instead.
    - Use modernizr 2.1pre custom build
    - add htaccess rules to get better caching and use gzip
    - combine images to image-sprites
    - DON'T use multiple HTML5 shivs. You're currently using 3 of them. Modernizr can be build with one included so just use Modernizr.
    - load all Javascript in footer of page to avoid blocking page load
    - set X-UA compat. in htaccess instead of in html


    So, fix this and we have a great XHTML Tpl Framework Thanks for this work, man!
