Re: [Usability] Cross-Desktop UI Pattern Library

[Kirk Bridger <kbridger shaw ca>]

 Thanks Calum - I saw that last week sometime and it has given me 
pause.  I'm working through these questions in my work and I'm starting 
to refine my proposal.  Pattern library shouldn't really be the 
"top-level" of the hierarchy as I had suggested.

I'd like some more time to refine things and come back with something a 
little more thought out.  Are we working with any deadlines or 
milestones that I should plan around?
