It is a very good change. Most users don't think to look for answers in a FAQ list (I know, but it is true). Changing to "Help" gives the user a clue.


I've been creating web sites for 12 years. I've always had FAQs on them. To my knowledge, the terminology has never confused anyone. My users are not that clueless.

But fine, I just will not do the upgrade. I haven't done one since version 2.7.1. Why? Because it means hours of work. I've done a lot of modifications, and I have to re-do each and every one if I upgrade the software. I have to go back and forth between the backup directory and my list of mods to see if I can just upload my modified file or if I have to edit that file again if it's been changed. I have to do this with EVERY file that's either on my list or in the backup directory. I also have to re-upload all the icons I've replaced. It's a huge pain, and the risk of breaking something in the process is great.

It's just not worth it.
