For what it's worth Gnome also has an HIG: https://developer.gnome.org/hig/

And they have claimed in the past to have done UX testing with actual users.

How many testers were there and how were they selected? Are they representative of gnome's current and future user bases?

I think I read once that their test group was basically the developers and their mediate friends. If so, then this is not how you do UX testing.
