Good question. IIRC, it was inconsistently used and people often refer to it 
as the "HIG". I don't really care. I'll change it; "Human" to "User".

I'll add that.

There's no copyright, author info or licensing info available at the old site, 
AFAICT. One possibility is to make all who have touched the document(cvs 
annotate) copyrighters, but it feels unnecessary. Then there's always the 
issue who "deserve" to be the copyrigher etc. etc -- I find "KDE Usability 
Team" an easy way out. From a juridical perspective it doesn't work, but that 
problem is all over the place and not a concern to my judgment.
How do you suggest it should be corrected?
