We certainly have some significant gaps.  For something started by
internet geeks, our coverage of computer science is really quite weak
(ok for "end users", but very spotty elsewhere).  Our coverage of
other engineering fields is often atrocious.

There's a lot more content to get to.  The community behavior problems
in the way of getting to content annoy me a lot of days.
