Huub,
You points about documentation are valid. We could certainly do with a 
few of the key developers and users dedicating time to maintaining 
documentation. This has been noted before, but it is difficult to address.
Reason: The best people to write the documentation are different to 
those who need it. Ie, it is a resourcing/funding issue. Ideally, I'd 
like to see an organisation sponsor a documentation push. Although I'm 
open to other suggestions.
