I'd love to get involved, but...it has to be easy. Seriously, I have 
work to do (as do we all).

What I need is to get a quick hit on "Digikam wiki" or to have a link to 
such a think IN the interface - main menu Help dropdown would be ideal.

I DO write a lot and contribute all over the place, but I don't have 
time to create infrastructure. I have to sleep occasionally.
