Need a ncie user-help system

Registered by Thomi Richards

We're trying to make this system for users who may not have the best technical background. It would be nice if we could embed user help in a nice way inside the web-app.

My idea for this is a pylons controller that accepts URLS like this:

/help/subject/category/file

And renders a template file with the same path. That way, we can add / remove help pages without having to touch the code. This could be a nice job for someone who doesn't want to hack the python code.

Whiteboard

This is now done - we write help pages in reST - these get translated into HTML pages and installed at /help/category/page.html.
