</div>It's not *that* bad ;-) Explore it, figure it out - after all, that's<br>
what we expect our end users to do! - and of needed, ask the original<br>
designers and developers for some explanation (that can hopefully be<br>
captured in the wiki as documentation).<br>
<br>
This approach has worked fantastic for Moodle and other projects. The<br>
alternative is to line up an army of technical writers, and I've only<br>
heard of one around here so far...</blockquote><div><br>That seems to be the case. And it's hard to argue with success.<br>As long as nobody is going to get upset when I test, then I suppose I'll be as happy as a clam.<br>
