Definitely. But at the end of the day this is an Open Source project. If people don't want to write documentation, they won't, and there's not a lot you can do to persuade them. I'm not playing the 'use the source Luke' card, I'm just telling you how it is. In my experience of Open Source projects, all ranting does is getting you killfiled.
