[interfacekit] Fwd: Re: Open BeOS Interface Kit

Howdy, Uli!

There is definitely a lot of work for this team to do, so help is quite 
welcome.  We'll be doing design and prototyping work for a while, 
hopefully finishing up by the end of the year.  This is going to require 

a lot of documentation since the rest of the team will need to review 
it, and is probably not going to be the most enjoyable thing to do.  
Aside from prototyping some stuff, we're not going to be doing a lot of 
coding until that's done.

Even if that doesn't appeal to you and you'd rather wait until we're 
ready to roll up our sleeves and really dive into coding (which is 
totally fine), we'd be very interested to hear your ideas.  Our research 

will give us a lot of good information, but there will be a ton of holes 

to fill in.

Let me know what you think,
