Okay... I have to stick my nose in here.

I agree with Kai, particularly about how GSOC folks should and shouldn't be
put to use, but...  Documentation is central to coding.

I would argue that any given piece of code or coding project is not finished
until the documentation is complete and consistent.

So it's quite heartening to me to see people going through and reviewing the
documentation, and looking for ways to reduce the amount of documentation
without losing information.

...and updating documentation should be a pro-active thing.  :)
