Hello...

After a quick chat with Lauri on IRC, we agreed that it would be a good idea 
to have some coordination between the documentation and translation teams and 
the people working in the usability project.

Obviously, usability is effected by documentation and translation coverage. So 
if changes are made to applications in the name of usability but this isn't 
communicated to and coordinated with those writing the documentation or 
translating the visible strings, we've won a battle but lost the war.

I've subscribed to the kde-doc-english list to hopefully aid in this regard 
and work with everyone on coordinating UI changes made by the usability 
project. Who knows, perhaps we'll also get one or two people from the 
usability project contributing some documentation as a bonus =)

I also understand there is work underway regarding a style guide for visible 
strings and other such items being worked on. I'm certain the usability 
project would be very interested in seeing (and following) this style guide 
when it is complete.

Take care...
