My goal is to push as hard as possible to get the community to come to a conclusion about the new Koha plone site.  Plone has an amazing documentation module that allows for collaborative editing and moderating.  This has been my goal all along - I surely didn't want to write the whole manual alone ;)

Coming into the game after the initial plone design contest and not knowing all of the details, I'm all for putting up the site with a premade template and then re-opening the contest.  This way I can focus on moving the documentation over and then opening it up for help from the entire community!!

I'm happy to support Nicole (particularly in the absence of other
candidates!), but just in case there are other candidates, here are my
concerns:-

1. What actions will the DM take to make collaboration on the manual
easier?  At the moment, it's on a google site which can only be
edited, downloaded and/or converted by a few, so others apparently
can't help make the up-to-date PDFs or whatever is wanted.

2. Do DM candidates have plans for the Online Help system?

Regards,
