I think the libraries are in use by the other applications (example

does no harm.
Jody, The cost of including documentation for libraries (and other 
projects) is that with each release someone needs to verify that the 
documentation hasn't become dated, and update where required, then 
trigger translators to update their pages.
The question is, do we have the volunteer capacity to do this task for 
each release, for each library? (At the moment our current volunteer 
base is struggling to keep up).
