I would say please don't stop doing what you're doing. We may sound impatient in our replies sometimes but I think what you are doing is really valuable - there are some inconsistencies in our documentation and our metadata and we ought to get them all ironed out. I guess the only difficult thing at this precise point in time is that a lot of us are busy with stabilisation work, thus we might not have as much time to sort these things out or even respond fully to your queries as we would like. If anything doesn't get fixed (particularly in the metadata) we should definitely try to make sure it gets addressed during the next development cycle.
