Just to add some thoughts about that: From my experience we don't get that much bug reports for documentation (if at all) from the community. Well, either our documentation doesn't contain any errors (which I doubt) or it is of minor importance for most. ;) Even in magazins when they test our distribution, they barely look into our documentation or even rate it. Some tests don't mention it at all. So it seems that either users don't know or don't care. :) I remember a poll few years ago which also asked about our documentation. The answers showed that documentation was considered important but it was not important to have a printed manual. I don't know the exact numbers, but that's rougly the trend that we are facing now.
