Views UI currently has detailed mockups and a minimally working
prototype for the main screen, latest progress is at [1], with further
background discussion in the views developers group. There's been a lot
of movement this week, and now it's narrowed down anyone ought to be
able to help with refinements.

As soon as the UI is workable, that'll make it much easier to write
views handlers, which is likely to be the lowest barrier to entry for
getting involved with actual coding. Obviously anyone starting early on
this could also document the process to speed up integration of
view-dependent modules when it gets closer to beta/rc.

In terms of saving developer time, the views issue queue [2] is very
busy. Helping with bug reports and support requests against Views 1 will
make it a much friendlier place to work in when it comes to alpha
testing Views 2. The Panels issue queue[3] is also pretty busy, so
helping there saves developer time as well.
