I've written up some of my thoughts on the issues raised in this article in the hacker news discussion, but to answer your question, there's still a number of big items that need to be tackled by the core team. I do think it might make some sense to have a docs/tests sprint just prior to the 0.4 release (we had a doc sprint before the 0.1? release which I think was pretty successful).
There is also plenty of opportunity for tests and documentation for people outside the core team. API design discussions can also happen even if people don't know how to implement them - it's much easier to implement an API that's already designed than to do both, designing the API and implementing it.
