Coincidentally I'm watching Reddit's keynote from PyCon and they wrote their own CSS compiler called C55. Their keynote is at http://blip.tv/file/1951296/ http://blip.tv/file/1951296/ and the slides at (starting with slide 29) http://www.slideshare.net/kn0thing/ride-the-snake-reddit-keynote-pycon-09?type=powerpoint http://www.slideshare.net/kn0thing/ride-the-snake-reddit-key...

Good ideas keep getting re-invented. There's about 4 or 5 versions of this with slightly different syntax, etc. But Sass alone has scripting, mixins, and libraries. These are the language features that make compass possible. From the feature set I see there, that is where Sass was about 1 to 1.5 years ago.
