Maybe I'm just being self-serving, but I'd love to see many more *users*
for a couple of reasons:
1: Fewer botted machines means less spam/exploits that I have to filter.
2: Hackers are users before they're hackers. Nobody's born w/it.

But maybe the solution isn't more documentation (there's a ton of it
already on the net, a good percentage outdated), but rather some general
documentation and some pointers on learning how to dig deeper for
oneself. It's like the old adage: build a man a fire and you warm him
once. Set a man afire and you warm him for the rest of his life. Or
something like that...
