Hi Stephen: We figured that it may be better to separate the protocol help
files from the local file system for various reasons (e.g. limit the size of
the distribution package, keeping the protocol help files up to date).
Accordingly, we would host them on a web werver and make them publicly
available (the free version). We are ready with this code change but need to
conduct some more tests before we upload them as update to bug No 3045.

Question: Would you also prefer this approach? And can you please indicate how
long it will approximately take to incorporate the protocol help into the core
package if we upload the updated patch next week?
