There needs to be a balance between readability and professionalism. At the
moment I think the balance is slightly too far towards the easy-reading,
joke-laden end of the spectrum - the titles of the first chapter and first
section should definately be less jokey IMHO. I have no prolems with occasional
jokes in the main text ("Drag and Drop, not to be confused with falling
reptiles, ..." made me chuckle)
Clearly a lot of work has gone into the HIG, and I think overall it's looking
pretty good. Obviously it's still a work in progress and I'm sure it will be
cleaned up by the time as R1 draws ever closer. Good work, DarkWyrm!
