Hi,
I'm back to this subject, because, as you probably know, the
proposal[1] has been accepted
<snip>
and has to be merged with mine[3]
and discussed a bit to understand what we have to do and who can help.

Hi,
Documentation team is planning to write the currently missing help for
MCC and all the tools in it. We don't have a clue whether the above
feature proposals, if implemented, will make a difference to what we
have to do, and if so: what difference.
Also, it is interesting to know whether you're willing to improve the
way the help will work if we do it the Mandriva way. It would be great
if the not working links would be fixed, and if it would be possible to
let the help from the menu bar link to the correct file for each screen,
instead of to a page with links you have to choose from. Please read on
to understand what I'm talking about.
If nothing would change to MCC, we would have to provide *html* files
with same names as Mdv used, to be put in the same place and
s/mandriva/mageia/
For Mandriva 2010.1 the following section in MCC, and usually for all
the tools in that section, the help (from the menu bar) links to a page
with links to other pages:
* Software Management ----->
/usr/share/doc/mandriva/en/Drakxtools-Guide/Drakxtools-Guide.html/software-management.html
(The same page can be seen here
http://doc.mandriva.com/en/2010/Drakxtools-Guide/Drakxtools-Guide.html/software-management.html
You can, of course, find the other pages mentioned below by adjusting
this link)

update ----->

Please, when you reply to this mail, keep in mind that I'm not a
