I would design it with thought, wit, and probably a
DTP tool of some sort. ;)

I'd include any and all elements that are not covered
by the documents you already reference (CMS and
MSMoS), and anything that differs slightly from these
references. In other words, conventions, style
definitions, department procedures, TW
responsibilities, favorite beanie babies, a pointless
quote from a forgotten author... oops, got carried
away! ;)

Include info about things you want to control the
look, feel, and function of, and design it so it
acceptably fits your department's (or company's) needs.
