I'm not sure what version of Sugar Lionel is targeting, but I've just  
tested Help-10 on 0.84 (in SoaS and sugar-jhbuild), and it currently  
fails to launch due to changes in the  new version of hulahop.

If Help-10 is just to run on 0.82 builds you should be able to get  
away with just replacing the html content inside the Help bundles  
folder (called help). Just to be non-standard with the rest of the  
world, the default start page seems to be called "help/ 
XO_Introduction.html" but it is defined on line 35 of helpactivity.py  
so if needed you can change it to point to some other start page.
