It seems like it would be fairly easy to generate JavaHelp documents from our docs, see [1] for example.
Yeah, that's one of the things Forrest will tackle. Believe it or not, I got both Javahelp and WinHelp generated from the same sources in a couple of hours, but then all got buried in teh rest of my copious free time :-/

What's needed:
-Generate a simplified HTML 3.2 format from both xdocs and wiki pages (a couple of pipelines)
-Generate the Javahelp helpset, TOC, map and index files (more simple pipelines)
-Ant tasks to automate this (some projects have them apparently, see [2])
Simpler: add a Forrest output format for it, and have the TOC, map and index files be generated similarly to the current whole-site PDF thing.
In this way each skin could have an optional "simplified" skin that can be used for creating this, alongside the site.
And if you use a webapp, you get instand Javahelp :-)
So, if anyone has more copious free time than me, you could be the Savior Of Our Docs until we have a better web-based solution ;-)
hehehe
