link to documentation added to /handbooks page.  The about Drupal and
the installation and configuration guides are still more important to
the general community then 'about drupal documentation'.  Link to
api.drupal.org added as well.


Suggestions on improving the phrasing appreciated.

In order to increase the participation and feedback from new users of
Drupal, the Handbook needs some improvements.



* The "About Drupal Documentation" section of the Handbook should be
weighted to appear at the top of the page.  This will bring the link
"Contributing to the Handbook" front and center.  Announcements could
also be posted on a regular basis on the forum to encourage and remind
users to contribute.
* Instructions for submitting documentation suggestions as issues
should be placed at the very top of the documentation page, ideally
under the Drupal handbooks title.  This will encourage suggestions from
new users on ways to improve documentation.  Perhaps a different color
or graphic can be used, similar to the orange box on the Drupal.org home
page.
