Shane, thank you for this. Like you, I am no programmer and it's great that 
you're showing what designers and web devs can offer this project.

Your design does address the four principles listed, but I wonder if it should 
also touch on "different". This group is trying to do something that's a little 
against the grain. I wonder how your design could be slightly evolved to 
include some unique personality traits?

I've been quiet on the list until now. Every I wanted to say was already being 
said. Not anymore.

I'm not a Cocoa dev or an email rfc dude, but I do love making websites. I 
agree with the above that until theres' something worth showing we shouldn't 
fly a flag as if there's anything remotely close to a product. Keep it simple. 
Keep it honest. This is open source after all.

I spent a little bit of time putting something together that i think is:
- simple
- honest
- clean
- Mac like

And in the spirit of open source, I've not only deployed it to Heroku (it's a 
dead simple Rails app with room to grow), but I've also put the repo up on 
GitHub. Free and open for all to see and fiddle with.
