Not picking on you but...

<ramble>
The fact that Developer's do not consider their duty to contribute effort to
improve to the status of documentation in the Debian project is one of the
reasons why http://www.debian.org/doc/ is not as good (in breadth and scope
of available, up-to-date and maintained documentation) as Gentoo's  [1],
FreeBSD's [2], RedHat's [3] or (gasp) Ubuntu's [4] available (i.e. official)
documentation.

At least we are better off than Fedora's [5] or OpenBSD's [6] (Although our
(unofficial) manpage search engine [7] is worst than OpenBSD's [8])
