I absolutely agree with what you said, Boomerang has better doc than most
others in TOS 1.x. However, an end-user would more appreciate a good readme
file together with the code distribution --- a good example is Drip's readme
file. Users need to know the behavior - the sense how to control it, not
just know what interface a module have - especially there might be bugs.
Microsoft's MSDN documentation is an ultimate good example - user can easily
know how to use a function or module by reading a simple example code
segment. Sincerely wish your guys do best.

This is completely not true.  The paper describes the interfaces and their
semantics.  The documentation in Boomerang provides detailed nesdoc
information on every interface and its uses.  There is also a sample SP
protocol called NetSync.  You will find that SP is documented more than any
other library in the tinyos-1.x tree.
