And those who might like to contribute don't find a hacking guide here 
either, one of my perennial gripes.  I contribute to open source, but I 
have limited time.  I chose to contribute to other projects in large 
part because the developer documentation is better (it exists) and the 
developers give more that 3 word answers to my "where do I find..." 
questions when I want to navigate the code.

If your goal is to recruit more developers (a good goal, IMHO) then 
something needs to be done to address the needs of new developers.
