Surely we could release it as part of the documentation of the software itself, and thus under the GNU General Public License; or am I missing something?
Regardless, our end-user documentation stinks. Let's get it sorted.

Is there a tarball somewhere of the Help namespace available here:

At this time we do not have a redistributable set of help pages with free, non-viral license terms.
Could you elaborate? The help pages have quality issues, but I wasn't aware of any licensing issues. While they are GFDL, this should not be an issue, as importing the help into a wiki would constitute "mere aggregation" with other pages in the wiki, which does not invoke the "viral" clause of the GFDL.
