Documentation, where to focus and help out?

Liferay Legend Posts: 6403 Join Date: 9/23/08 Recent PostsI believe that it will be (but probably isn't yet). There's help.liferay.com, and also in the build-up phase, learn.liferay.com (deliberately not linking both here)
Awesome. Thanks David for the clarification. Is the new platform open for input / pull requests?

Junior Member Posts: 65 Join Date: 3/25/10 Recent PostsHello All,
Wanted to bump this conversation up again to see if there is any further information on the ability to help or make suggestions for improvement or clarification on the help.liferay.com content. It does seem to be continuing to improve but I continue finding myself wanting to not just hit the buttons that say whether the page was helpful or not, but I want to actually comment on _why_ it was or wasn't helpful.
For example, when going through the exercise of creating custom Finder methods using either Custom SQL or Dynamic Queries, there is a small note that would be helpful to remind developers that the custom Finder methods do (although, maybe obviously) need to be OSGI components also. If a dev doesn't make that FinderImpl a component, mysterious failures seem to ensue.
All in all, grateful for the efforts that are going into the docs, it is much appreciated, just looking for a way to directly comment directly in context over there somehow.
