Drupal help is perceived as a
handful of worms.
See issue #299050, #523638, etc

The help system we caught^w got.




             http://www.flickr.com/photos/rickharris/2734202118
The help system
that got away.

Help text is better in Drupal 7.
Thanks to arianek, jhodgdon (and the docs team).
See issue #537828




            D6 to D7
The help system is still basic.

Packing generic help isn’t helpful,
it’s just easier.
