[documentation] Help cleaning up comments

[Steven Peck]

Thanks for the idea.  

At this time there is no plans to implement views module on Drupal.org.  It
is a fine module but the infrastructure resources are all working on plans
for improving performance and getting their stuff in and reviewed for Drupal
6.

So it's more a time and where to direct available resources type thing than
anything else.

Thanks for the suggestion though,
