Hi all,

I wanted to bring the following from the 0.6 spec to the attention of the list:

Where does the help - '?' icon link to? For any software application including a web application, it would be ideal if the 'help section' (which currently exists in multiple places) is part of the application. For 0.6, it is presumed that the help would take the user to Cosmo Causal Collaborator end user documentation which would be on the OSAF wiki. The reason for this is because of the rapid change in development, for Cosmo 0.6 there is really not enough man power to work on the help section as a stand alone project.

This note is to acknowledge there are various levels of help docs currently on the wiki for different users, ie. Admin user for the OSAF bundle, Casual Collaborator user using the OSAF hosted service, developers who are just trying to look at the Cosmo code, etc. Please remember the focus and the goal for Cosmo 0.6 until Preview, the primary focus is for the Casual Collaborator and the OSAF Administrator user for the hosted service. Temporary help documents will be provided on the OSAF wiki for Preview, Help documentation as a dedicated feature will be slated in a later release, post Preview.

So in other words, there is this help icon in the Collection Details dialog box. I need to know where exactly it should link to and (Jared has mentioned something about a url which redirects to a wiki page) and also, I need to know that stuff will be there, whether it's me or someone else who is responsible for creating that content and putting it there.
