Updates to the CommCare Help Site

[Jeremy_W (Jeremy Wacksman)]

Hello, CommCare Users,

We have been working hard to improve our documentation and have reorganized
our CommCare Help Site (formerly the CommCare Wiki).

You can now access the Help Site by navigating to:
http://help.commcarehq.org

Hopefully you will find it easier to locate the information you need. We
have removed a lot of outdated information, added new screenshots, and
grouped relevant material together. We're always adding new information and
will announce new resources when we send out release notes or other
CommCare software updates.

Here are some recently-updated resources on the help site you may find
useful:
