Who uses it, and for what purpose?

Is the project write-only storage by default? In other words if nobody  
uses it, then there is no point in fixing it.

I'd not even heard of it before, and as of now have spent less than a  
minute examining the website.

There is a theory that for development purposes "RTFM" is a bad idea,  
because TFM is always out of date, and RTFSC is the only rational  
approach. Purists presumably read source code from which the comments have  
been stripped. We won't discuss those who read a.out files.
