Response to: Documentation
On a similar note, the documentation for many linux (and open-source in general) applications is missing one crucial element: What the program actually does. So many programs have manpages (or sourceforge pages) along the lines of -- voxflorb 1.2.4452 -- Compiling voxflorb command-line options known issues in voxflorb etc. etc. etc. without saying anywhere what voxflorb actually does.
