My question to the mailing list: is this task structured? Is this being managed by anyone?
Unfortunately, not.
Aditya's reply sums it up pretty well. I just want to add a quick note.
After at least half a dozen reiterations of this discussion (and it is indeed always exactly the same discussion), I have now reached the point where I no longer feel the slightest need to take any action any more. From where I stand, it seems that the unhappy people just want to complain about, but are not willing to help improve the existing documentation, and that the happy people just want to post pointers but fail to see a real need to improve anything.
I myself would be much more willing to spend time on (managing|writing) the manual if there were any people showing an active interest in it.
I myself am very interested in *reading* it - I was delighted to see the new fonts chapter and the new documention project in general. But I am not sure I can contribute much. I am much more of a "consumer" than a "producer", of accurate information. Partly due to lack of time, but also lack of knowledge :) -- John Devereux
