Unfortunately, ASF procedures require every contribution to be made porpuseful and record of this purpose has to be kept. In practice that means that every contribution to the project, even documentation, has to be made by someone who either signed a contributor license agreement (CLA) or (in case the contribution is small) an explicit license grant has to be made for the contribution (when submitting JIRA patches for example, this is done by ticking the "grant license for inclusion" checkbox).

So a community-driven documentation effort is out of the question unless we come up with a system or procedure that complies with ASF rules.

Nothing being suggested in this post is new, my question is where the 
bottleneck lies? and how can we help? community driven docs (with or without 
changing existing docs) sounds like the most sensible option to me as it would 
lift this burden from the commiters and get more people activly involved in 
growing Tapestry.
