Hi,

What documentation is missing? What is disorganized? Which javadoc is minimal? Which questions are slow in getting answered or are not getting answered at all?

Would be happy to fix these things, but need to know very specific things that you're referring to. For example, right now, I'd say almost everything has already been documented. So, there must be some difference between your perspective and mine -- would like clarity from you as to what is missing and/or incomplete.

Hi,
A couple of barriers to my motivation/ability to contribute have been
- The lack/disorganisation of current documentation
- Missing/minimal javadoc
- Slow/no response to questions on mailing lists
I'd love to see those areas improve. Netbeans is an excellent IDE and
development platform, and it'd be great to see it become easier to
contribute.
Regards,
Daniel
