[General] The HelpUs page

Hi,

I made a pass on this page and did the following.

- Created the "starterproject" keyword for Chandler's Bugzilla
- Corrected the l10n paragraph, pointed to the correct l10n page, added 
a table for such projects. I left the paragraph there since we won't log 
bugs for all possible languages on earth and it's worthwhile pointing 
people from that page to the l10n page. I stopped short of creating bug 
for Spanish and Danish and assigning to the listed volunteers...
- Suppress the JXTA project : Andi did jabber and imap for his P2P 
experimental work. We wouldn't turn away a patch implementing JXTA but 
that's not something that would "helpus" and it's not really a simple 
"starterproject"
- Logged bug/starterproject 10076 (French localization)
- Logged bug/starterproject 10084 (Data Segmentation : predicting use of 
incoming items from existing "folksonomy")
- Logged bug/starterproject 10085 (Data Visualization : visual 
exploration of large sets of PIM data)
- Logged bug/starterproject 10086 (Behavior analysis and prediction)

Looks like I'm done for that page.

Cheers,
- Philippe
