The major reason for the problems you cite is that this is an 
open-source project in which relatively few people and companies have 
been interested until quite recently. We haven't exactly been 
overflowing with people willing to do the dirty jobs like writing 
transports (ick!) and documentation -- and those who have been willing 
to do these things have not necessarily had a great deal of time to 
spend on these activities.

At least so it seems to me.
