I'd like to set my students on the task of producing end-user documentation. I've been reading your posts, and it sounds like you want contributors to work on the FAQs, which will eventually be rolled into the mozilla builds.
that's correct.
I do not know. I've given up the ownership of the FAQ to the public, so I will be fine if you coordinate the work in public or in private, as long as the end result is accessible to the public.If I coordinate the student writing and edit it, then where do we go?
I do not know either. You will need a multi-user account and I don't know if Zope gives you that. And Zope's requirements on HTML (a good format for publishing, but not for writing) would make me think twice. I believe the people at zope read this forum, so expect some quick reply from them on this :)What's up with the Zope project?
There are always tech writing classes and projects looking for work. If the submission process were more streamlined perhaps I could get aYou will have to talk with the zope people on this.

toward this problem.
Since you will have teams working consistantly on Mozilla documentation, it will be nice if you collect feedbacks from your students once a while and publish a newsletter on your documentation process. People who have never done tech writing (including me, before the FAQ) might be interested in reading about it.
