Hi all,
In the past, the context ids for context sensitive help were generated
by a Java web application that allowed you to create new content.

The IDs were based on a hash calculated from the class name being documented.

Here are the options:
1) Keep the web application and make it generally available for
maintaining context sensitive help.
2) Replace the method for creating context IDs and update the help
database through other means.

Option 2 requires another method for generating the unique IDs since
the method used is unique to Java. I have a Python script that will do
the job.

What approach does the community want to take?
