Ha, other developers have told us that we have more documentation than
most of the open source projects :)

Can you tell us which functions? Did you eventually understand them?
Did you ask questions here? We also have a #hypertable irc channel on
freenode. Feel free to jump in to say hi.

Hypertable is far from mature. For client development, now that we
have ThriftBroker,  you can access hypertable in a dozen languages.
API doc is embedded in the thrift IDLs (Client.thrift and Hql.thrift).
You can get the full syntax and some example for every HQL statement
via help <statement> in bin/hypertable or if any language if you
figured out the hql_exec/query API.

For core hypertable development, please read the bigtable paper for
overal architecture and the code for details and ask questions here if
somethings are not clear.

Sure, we welcome doc contribution as well! :)
