+1 I think a good documentation is most important. Normally I only use forums or mailing lists, if there is no answer in the doc or maybe in the wiki.
I did a little research on documentation formats and posted the corrected files a week ago. I attached the files, so you don't have to search them. The thing I realized during the research was, that managing a documentation is not a trivial job. I think we should start a new doc mailing list and try to find a solution with the people who wants to help in this subject and the cooperating with the devs and the web-team. The Documentation of Freebsd in case of a classical documentation (Handbook pdf and html) and the german ubuntuusers-wiki (http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Startseite) are good examples for good and helpful documentations. I think it is a better solution to make a decision in the group than trying a huge amount of different systems by single persons.
