They also mention this site, which would have been useful to mention:

hey guys!
So, coltrane actually wrote most of the code behind Certified To Rock (though it was all of our work) and c4rl did the theme/javascript work.
And perhaps the most important thing to correct. I'm not a cat person ;)

I'll gladly pick this up at the meeting this weekend ;-)

Fixing the IE CSS Files Limit
There actually are a couple of modules to address the problem of IE's limit on the number of CSS files loaded:

Cloud Hosting
Two good suggested work arounds for the IE issue. I don't suppose you have any handy modules to fix the multi-server with a non-shared files directory issue?
I've looked and I've looked (about 6 months ago) but couldn't find anything.

The answer?
I ended up finding this great talk from DrupalCon SF by Barray Jaspan of Acquia. It looks like a GlusterFS share is the way to go (to share the files directory).
