You are right that there is a lot to do. However as you wrote only few people care about java and these already do a hard work to keep things going. Help in improving documentation is it updating the Java FAQ, writing a Java Developers Guide or working on the wiki stuff would be greatly appreciated.

That has nothing to do with a personal opinion - it just doesn't belong there. Beside that I recognize the value a Java Developer Guide could have.
