"hacking the social system"

[Nathan Olberding]

To kickstart this effort, I'm going to start reading up on the current
UI guidelines later tonight. I think I'll pick on KColorChooser first,
since it's pretty simple. I'm also thinking of Kcalc and Kedit. That
way, like Carlos said, we can see how it goes. Anyone else is
absolutely welcome to do similar!

Where can I go for the KDE 4 guidelines and info about their
development? I'll poke around myself, but how might the OpenUsability
project like to participate? I've only heard of them and seen their
site, never worked with them.

I think this is a good start as far as the UI conformance issue. Are
there any other particular issues on the table? I'm not sure we can do
anything about motivating developers. I think it's pretty much up to
them to do what they want to do. Are there any other avenues of
discussion we want to cover in this thread?
