Sopot Cela suggested I cross post this from the forum...

The e4 application model solves a lot of the problems we're hitting as we 
move our RCP based application into its 3rd release. I had already started 
prototyping the new UI and training my team when I discovered a major 
hole: no help system.
I've search the web and these forums and mostly just found "yep, it's not 
there" responses. I can't release a professional product without an 
integrated help system. Especially as it was one of the most praised 
features of the previous two releases. I image just about anyone else 
wanting to use e4 is in the same boat.
Does anyone have a status on this? Is there a working system that I 
haven't seen? Or a way to use the workbench based help without having to 
drag in the whole workbench model? Or is there a team or user group 
working on this, and what's their timetable?
I really want to move my product to the e4 model, but my team doesn't have 
the resources to write or port the entire help system. If this has already 
been started, I might be able to argue for committing some of my resources 
to helping the effort out. (That's how open source is supposed to work, 
right?)
Can anyone give me the status of this, or point me in the right direction? 


Cheers,

Jo
