I would appreciate your help with the UI Guidelines document.

Basically I want it to be similar in content to the Apple Human
Interface Guidelines, with the addition of lots of programming
examples that serve as a reference for programmers.

Please take a look at whatever is on CVS now (under
gnome-libs/devel-docs/ui-guide) -- it is very incomplete right now,
and it could certainly use some work to bring it up to speed.
