I'll start this. I'll include the initial FAQ aspx file in the repository, but I
won't add the page to the UI until we are ready for it to be visible to the 
public.

This is something that I'd like to have a lot of review and input from everyone 
on.
Since there's a lot of topics we can cover and hopefully, we can cover a lot of
common questions.

I think this should go live as soon as possible, perhaps hiding faqs not yet 
ready to
be published but showing them as soon as they say something. This is absolutely
needed for many of dnk features which are not so known to the public.

Feel free to submit some answers either here, email, wherever and I can work on
cleaning up any grammatic, terminology, etc. to make sure the answers all flow
together in the same format. 

If there's specific modules that someone here might be better educated (or the
developer of), then just post some Q&A and I'll do the HTML coding to get the 
content
in there. I'll have some time today and tomorrow to work on this, I'd like to 
get
most done by Sunday.

Notes for myself:

Add FAQ for DNK stats:

James, wouldn't a wiki make more sense for fleshing out the FAQ rather than 
doing it 
inline here?

Yes, but I don't know of one for DNK. I was going to try to get all of this 
done over
the weekend. 

After the basics are done, then specific module developers could write/submit 
their
own FAQ via the code repository. Just wanted to get the basics up quick because 
of
all of the new stuff.

Actually, I wouldn't mind if the FAQ was stored in a table so it would be 
easier to
maintain than just writing HTML.

> I don't know of one for DNK. 

Actually, I meant to suggest using the wiki facility available here on the 
googlecode project site.

Ah... great idea. Been here for a month and didn't even realize it was there.

Finished the questions above. Please review at
http://localhost:8080/pages/docs/FrequentlyAskedQuestions.aspx

If it looks okay, then we can figure out where to put it at.

Should we replace "about" link with FAQ? Or add another link for FAQ? or put it
somewhere else?

Original comment by james.e....@gmail.com on 2 Oct 2007 at 12:26

[GoogleCodeExporter]

We could add the FAQ to the about page?

Sounds good to me. I'm sure we'll run into a few more questions that can be 
added to
it, but (as long as its been reviewed by everyone) I think the biggest 
questions have
been answered there.

I tried to not make it too much specific to DNK (so that others who are 
implementing
it  wouldn't need to spend a lot of time updating it.

Maybe we should have certain pages that are not included in the DNK download? A 
FAQ
page like this would be a good candidate for site-specific pages versus pages 
that
are generic for other implementations?
