Loving the EtherPad cloud computing software. I even have my own pad at http://etherpad.com/amsdiane. I only wish Google had done this first ...
Pros: Free, easy to use, intuitive, easy to add others,
Cons: no deletion, non-public use requires fee/person.
I love these because the only thing that is constant is change. (Don't fear it, embrace it!)

IU repository including data about docs resides on a server @ IU. The Sakai KB has been exported & formatted as static Help pages as we know it. KB@iu.edu. IU have a DB of their own. Context sensitive help menus can be developed.
The docs come as a weird combo of needs. We really need two types of docs: "how do I?" & "why do I?" Rutgers includes a "what's this" link for select new features.
There exists a need to have a template that is wiki-like that we can create a tool description that still allows for user & community contribution. Warnings, pedagogy, user feedback, analytics, collection & reporting (JIRA?) should be included. Consider the variety of medium. A review and update system to existing content.
Look into the End-User Confluence page & the BoF, too, for more information.
