Mike ... Once IC 5 is released we are planning a big upgrade to our companies 
internal interchange support systems. As part of this we are planning on going 
through the IC online help and updating the existing sections, adding in new 
sections etc. As usual, we will probably go to work on the visual design and 
layout of it as well. :-) My hope is that the work we do here will be able to be 
integrated into IC and will be of benefit to the rest of the community.

We would be quite happy to help out here in whatever ways we can as well.  The 
problems in the past for me has been how exactly does one contribute to the 
docs.  The new wiki has changed all that now ... and things should be a whole 
lot simplier.
