Jose: The two rules that you specified have the same weight. After trying
to decide which one to run (and because they are worth the same to the
converter) it couldn't make up it's mind and decided to let you know that
it was running the last two of those rules.

Yes, I have encountered before, both in XSL and CSS

|What are its implications? 

Because the two rules are similar, I don't see too many problems. Just to
be sure, I would put the more general of the two conflicting rules at the
end so the parser will execute the one matching the most nodes
