Hi, it's been a time since I wrote to this list. Anyway, I just wanted to announce a HelenOS project, it's called (temporally) HOSDE (or HDE, i don't know which). HOSDE means HelenOS Desktop Environment and it's my effort to help ahcieve this on HelenOS. I already did a mockup for this http://sheosi.deviantart.com/art/Desktop-Environment-lazy-mockup-406022431, in this DeviantArt page the desktop functionality and the design decisions used are described.
HOSDE will use elementary's HIGs as they are already awesome http://elementaryos.org/docs/human-interface-guidelines. The language used will be Go for applications, while libraries will be written in C as much as possible (this is done with the hope to let everyone use their preferred language). I know it will take time until it's something like the mockup but I will try to do my best. I would like to get some feedback from you (what things you like, the thing you dont, if you thing this is impossible) and since I'm pretty much a noob in this regardI hope i can count on you when I can't do it myself.
