Well, the usability team should be co-ordinating with pretty much
everyone, really, not just the a11y team.  Co-ordination with the docs
team is equally important (if it's hard to document it'll usually be
hard to use), as it is with the i18n team who should be looking for
localisation difficulties in existing and proposed GUIs... and of course
the GNOME marketing team should be constantly feeding us user
requirements and feedback :)

Cheeri,
Calum.
