i'm not really sure what to tell you. we have our own developers doing the OpenTV stuff, a lot of it is templated to cope with sheer volume but i'm not sure how it works for independants dealing with sky. are you working with producers who can find out for you? who is doing the development?
i guess you need to contact the interactive team at sky and ask them to talk you through what is possible and how they would need assets to be supplied etc.
the only practical advice i can give you off the top of my head is that you need to remap all your application graphics to 256 colours including the sky 16. Every palette can have two transparency settings (100% and 0%). Multi streaming video is possible with enough bandwidth (which depends of course on how much £ is available).
also remember to find out before you start, whether you'll be designing to widescreen or 4:3. oh yea and no type below 24 pt.
