This is a response to a private message, but since it's on a public subject I am forwarding it to the list:

I contributed a chapter of the user manual last year, but that has never been put on the website; in the circumstances, it seems a bit of a waste of time. Havoc Pennington also wrote a chapter and is doing a lot of work on a Tutorial, which isn't even mentioned on the DDP page. To the list as a whole: this project currently appears to be stuck fast. The DDP homepage still refers to Christian Schwarz, who has unfortunately left the project, and the content as a whole doesn't seem to have changed in a year. If contributions are not incorporated, there are not going to be any more contributions; I certainly won't spend time writing stuff that no-one will read.
