I'll jump in here.  As some examples:

http://opencast.jira.com/wiki/display/MH/Matterhorn+Static+Resources
http://opencast.jira.com/wiki/display/MH/Create+a+Custom+Workflow+Operation+Handler
http://opencast.jira.com/wiki/display/MH/Documenting+REST+services

Still relevant in the sense that they're in use in the codebase,
although possibly a little outdated now.  I imagine there are others
where having the docs there, even if they're outdated, is better than
nothing at all.
