I have just downloaded DNN 5.0. docs, full of expectation, but found that most of the manuals have not been updated since June 2006(!).  Their world seems to have stopped at 3.0.  They have never heard of Vista, and most dont even mention XP.

There are some excellent unofficial docs out there (thank you, Mitchell Sellers, Michael Washington) but why is it all piecemeal and on different sites? 

Surely it would be better just to STOP issuing a tired package of out of date docs of very limited value until a new doc project can be set up to pull together the valuable material that is out there.  The current method is worse than issuing no docs at all.

Sorry to grumble about a good product.

Perhaps it is part of a cunning plot to force us all to buy the DNN books

Well, yes, I would be willing.  It surely needs 2 or 3 key people to create a list of docs required (overview, installation, api, building modules etc) then to request input for each manual, allocate an editor to each manual and an overall editor to impose rules of style, versioning etc.

Most of the "current" docs would (I suggest) have to be discarded.  They are out of date, repetitive and in many cases misleading.

Who would be the document supremo to have overall charge?
