(Restating that obvious preference for a fix with the complaint tends to change the connotation, and I get that response (or a stronger version) from so many open source projects.) > In open source, we can, in theory, tap users who recently shed > their innocence about a particular tool and can write the > documentation they wish they had had. This *very* rarely happens > b/c most users can't be bothered, Unfortunately, when a very beginning user (one who hasn't yet shed enough innocence to help yet) asks where documentation is, some projects just about tell the beginner to write it himself, giving the impression that the developers don't care about documentation or new users. If they said something like, "hey, sorry, we haven't had time to document that, but if you research it and figure it out, it would be a shame not to capture your fresh knowledge somehow," maybe it would come across more as a request for help. Anyway...thanks for the software and the documentation that does exist.
