Markus,
Although I understand your frustration, please consider the many people
that have actually contributed in many other ways to the ICS project. Either
by providing code, testing, or offering support for free.
Over the course of a decade, volunteers have created complete sets of
documentation files, in various formats, including Windows Help, HTML, etc.
All these projects have eventually been abandoned due to the constant
dedication and effort required to maintain them, but they have been there. The
Wiki is just the latest one.
Although I agree that a comprehensive documentation effort would be of
great value to the ICS community, keep in mind that what has traditionally
differentiated ICS from say, Indy, is the community itself. ICS support--this
mailing list in particular--has been unparalleled.
You are welcomed to contribute all you can to the ICS Wiki, and so is
every other member of this mailing list. Any little time is appreciated by all
of us, but ultimately we recognize that it is a volunteer effort.
Sincerely,
dZ.
