I'll wrangle patches submitted to the mailing lists, just as other
developers would do for submissions related their areas of expertise
or interest, right. :)  I can offer opinions, but I'm not a contact,
liaison, or point person for getting things done.  Just a volunteer
here in this context.

The OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION list is a home for DIG, so welcome! :D

I'd advocate an open source license of some sort.  For a user manual,
we don't strictly need to match the license used by Evergreen (GNU
GPL, v2), but for the context sensitive help, if we'd like to easily
distribute that content as part and parcel of the software that isn't
reliant on external community servers, then it'll help if we use a
license compatible with the GPL.  Since the GPL is of course
compatible with itself, it gets my vote. :-)
