Seems Weinberg's Second Law still applies. Thanks for the interesting input for the support tab. I'll be taking account of these ideas. My primary focus in this project is documentation, and I share your concerns about that. I hope to make a difference in this area. Did you sign up for the docs mailing list? Please do keep your finger on the pulse there, and speak up with your ideas and comments (constructive). Did you see the new Linux installation instructions I pointed you to? Feel free to feed back on the docs list about them...
