have it open in my text editor.. will read later this evening and provide 
feedback. thanks for doing this, it's exactly what we need for as much of KDE 
as possible.. step 1 is identifying areas for improvement.. if you can 
maintain this document (e.g. updating it with new items and closing items 
that are completed) that would be great as well!

the idea was to have it able to be uploaded the usability website and have it 
automagically formatted properly with things like a TOC ... searching of 
tagged information also tends to be better than raw text if what you are 
using as a search tool understands those tags.

we just need to get the XML stuff on the website ... there was some work going 
on to that end, but there was a measure of hesitation on the volunteer's part 
due to wondering if it would ever get used. the usability reports are 
starting to appear, so i guess that question is answered (and for the 
positive, too!)
