So, there are 7 example applications of different stripes that come with the
Lift source distribution and there's also ESME, the Unconference example in
lift-samples (on GitHub) and PocketChange.  These example cover virtually
every part of Lift and rather than being a whole e-commerce application,
they are modules that can be woven together.  Given the pitfall of having a
complex monolithic app, we chose to highlight individual pieces of
functionality.  What pieces of functionality are missing for you?

The unconference code ran last year's Scala Lift Off.  The ESME code is
currently is use at a number of fortune 100 companies.

In terms of the lack of documentation, that's exactly what we're looking to
rectify.  So, what documentation do you need that are not provided between
the Getting Started Guide, Exploring Lift, and the ScalaDocs are missing?
