[documentation] New documentation module (proof of concept)

> needed by advanced help. Thus you'll be able to write documentation  
> using Drupal and export it for use by advanced help.
> helpinject: a module that lets you "inject" advanced help icons into  
> Drupal pages and form elements. Any page and any form element can  
> get context sensitive help. This can either be done for just the  
> site running helpinject (for custom help on that site), or can be  
> exported to a new module that does the injecting in a distributable  
> way.

> context sensitive help in Drupal 6 (as a downloadable project)  
> (we'll be recruiting help writers to assist with this effort)

> written online in a collaborative content management system (like  
> Drupal). It assumes that the infrastructure team would be able to  
> run the export functions during the packaging process (and possible  
> check the code into CVS as well - this point will generate debate).

Note, I forgot to shut off comments on the g.d.o post so I'll manually  
route things back and forth to keep the conversation straight. :-/ If  
anyone wants to help with getting the mailing list and g.d.o sync'd  
up, please talk to Moshe or Josh Koenig about how to help. ;-)
