There's not a great deal to contribute to just yet, although you're 
welcome to comment on our rough kickoff notes at 
<http://live.gnome.org/UsabilityProject/HIG/ThreeZero>.

When we're a little further down the road there will undoubtedly be 
chapter outlines, UI patterns and suchlike to review, and that will 
probably be a good opportunity for more people to get involved.

(Hopefully you all understand that we can't just invite everyone who's 
interested onto the core team of HIG writers and designers; we'd never 
produce anything. But by providing useful and knowledgable feedback when 
the time comes, people stand a better chance of being invited to join in 
future if and when new blood is required...)

Cheeri,
Calum.
