+<para>This project was started to help unify the vocabulary used in &kde;
+documentation.</para>
+
+<para>We provide this for you here as an aid to learning your way around the
+&kde;
+Graphical User Interface. These names have been standardized within &kde;
+documentation, so that you will always find interface items referred to in the
+same way.</para>

+<tip><para>The term <quote>Widget</quote> refers to the basic building
+block of a computer program's interface.</para>
+<para>Each widget operates in a
+similar manner each time it is used, but the effect that the widget has depends on
+its place within the program.</para></tip>

+Widgets to add: combo buttons (eg, the 'back' button in konq), popup
+menus/context menus, passive popups, navigation panel buttons?
+
+Perhaps list deprecated names, for search/replace purposes?

+<title>Listing of Common &kde; Widgets</title>
+<para>Currently, this guide consists of a table of the names of the graphical
+elements often found in &kde; documentation, and an example of each one. </para>
+<para>Our hope, eventually, is to make this a much more complete document,
+which will take you on a visual tour of &kde;.</para>
