But sometimes the patches sit and rot...
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1479
Even though a tiny contribution, it is clarifications I needed when I began
migrating to M2, but then stayed with M1 due to completeness, stability, and
docs.  If more users did little patches like that for what they know, the
docs would get there, instead of stagnant as today.  (Ramin Farhanian and
others: please submit doc patches after digging in like that!  :-)

We see lots of lips service to "improving docs" from committers and some
users, but action seems tiny.  For example, wasn't it last Oct/Nov when we
read "we are working on a multi-module doc"?  Kind of silly that by now
_something_ isn't there, instead of still "In progress.".

Yes.  Go here http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG and look through the
components that start with "documentation".  Pick something that interests
you, write the docs for it and attach your documentation to the issue.
We'll get it into the next version.

An open source project is only as good as its community and what it gives
back.  I'm not paid to do this any more than you are.  Hopefully the
documentation situation will improve over the next few months.

Hi,

Is there any way to improve all the documentation for the Maven.
