Expanding the API Website

Registered by Michael Hall

We now have the first release of the new API website, which provides an incremental improvement over the previous static docs. Now that the foundation is in place, it is time to grow the quantity and quality of API docs in the system, allow for community contributors to add related content and comments, and grow a community around maintaining and contributing to the site's content itself, much like we have for AskUbuntu.com
