It can get frustrating. The people who work on it know all the kinks, it can
be a big effort to capture that working set of knowledge on a particular
subject and write in down in a readable way.
Here's an idea, maybe Redhat (or Fedoranews, who already has a great tips
section) or some other stakeholder should have a page of docs and stuff that
is needed, people can register and 'lock' a subject for a couple of days, by
which time they have to have submitted and had approved documentation for
whatever it was they were interested in. Then they get a credit on the docs
and the stuff is added to the official pile. Otherwise the subject comes
back up again.
Even if nobody bid on the docs, at least there would be a public site tracking
what was lacking. Anything that shows up on the mailing list twice,
especially anything replied to with "search the list archives" should
probably get added.
MySQL has a nice system too, eg
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Date_and_time_functions.html
It is like a wiki without being uncool. It would be even better if an editor
reviewed the comments occasionally and incorporated the good ones into the
text (with credit), deleting those comments.
