I don't know who all has names in the race but my vote would be for Fireball. He has done quite a
lot of work helping on translation and international issues in ReactOS and I think with the
Russian Translation of the website and been helping others to translate ReactOS in to thier native
language.

Earlier on the mailing list (ros-web, ros-devel, and ros-general all got 
carbon copies), there was a mail with the subject "Interface team", to 
which both me and Mikko answered to introduce ourselves. In the event 
you missed this mail, I'll copywaste the most important part of it:

----
There's interest in forming an interface team, and I think it's worth
exploring. This team would be responsible for all visual styling that
goes on in the project. This includes ReactOS UI design and the look &
feel of the website.

So far both mf (as known on IRC, and has come up with most of our
current icons in ReactOS) and Mikko Tikkanen (has done a great mock-up
for the site: http://devnet.dnsalias.net/guidesign/web_mockup.jpg)
have shown interest in heading this team. If anyone else wants to
throw their hat into the ring - feel free to do so.
----

Read the replies and/or ask other ros team members (Informed are Jason, 
Fireball, and GreatLord) if you need more info on the candidates (that's 
us :D).

Best Regards,
mf (Mindflyer).

Sorry Mf,
I lost 6+ years of Ros email. So I must have lost it.

Mf? okay who are you?

Anyway,

I know there are allot of GDI functions not support yet with Ros, so
is this "team leader" going to setup a list of things we need to do to
get GDI up to date? OpenGL and so on? Basically we are talking about
the gui right? Win32k.sys and all.

B^/ Sun is too bright today,

I am mf, also known as Mindflyer, not to be confused with Martin Fuchs. 
I have gotten interested in ReactOS, and am currently replacing various 
icons. For instance, when you checkout latest SVN, the "My Computer" 
icon is one of my creations. I also hang out on IRC and on the forums. 
I've dealt with my share of open source projects in the past, so I think 
I have some authorization to say that I know what I'm doing :).

Alas, it is less technical than you think. The interface team will 
basically be controlling how things will look on the outside, which 
button goes where, what keystroke generates what reaction, etc. It's all 
a bit more on the "Human interfacing" side of development, something 
most programmers haven't eaten much cheese of (excuse the dutch 
expression). Basically, we'd be deciding how things look, act, and 
react(OS! - sigh, too lame pun). The technical side will also be 
addressed, but I think if you're looking for a list of missing GDI 
functions and such, you're better off asking someone in the dev team 
instead :).

It is here too,

Just a question: are you registered a committer? Only people
registered as committers may vote, that's why I ask.

Cheers

Hi

I'm going to vote for Mikko. Mikko came to me with this idea and sold
me on it, when I was initially uninterested -- that gave him the edge
in my opinion. He clearly showed passion for the position and appears
to have a good sense of style.

Of course, if mf is voted in (as the votes appear to show), I will
support him. He too has a good taste for style and appears to be good
at listening to the ideas of various people. I'm sure he too has
passion for the position or he wouldn't have agreed to be nominated.

Regards
Jason
