I've talked about Blueprint here in the past because I use it here and on konigi. Fans of Drupal and Blueprint will be happy to hear that Ted Serbinski has released a Drupal theme that utilizes the Blueprint CSS Framework. Keep in mind that this is for fixed-width layouts only.
Among the features announced:
- normalizes Drupal’s CSS to be consistent
- properly aggregates all blueprint CSS files into a single file when this setting is enabled
- put scripts at bottom of page for nice performance gains
- flexible layout, from 1 to 3 columns, based on where you configure your blocks to show (left, center, right)
- SEO optimization without the need for heavy modules and additional queries per page
- better forum icons
- improved forum display and performance
- prevents duplicate form submissions with jQuery
- shows the # of comments below a node since Drupal doesn’t do this by default (usability)
- highlight any comments by the author of the node
- adds a “you need to login / register” box below all comments if you can’t add a comment (usability)
- supports conditional comment subjects, if the setting is off it won’t show a chopped off title of the comment
- uses CSSEdit comments for grouping of styles

Some interesting stuff on that feature list. I'm releasing a new theme soon, I'll have to see if I can incorporate some of those...

Looks very promising and feature-rich.
Any plans for releasing Blueprint Theme for Drupal 6?
