[Qgis-developer] 3.0 Documentation and branching

[Tom Chadwin]

A quick, sweeping, unhelpful but important opinion from me (non-dev,
non-doc-writer).

Please don't think that retrospective documentation, and lack of docs for
current release (not master, but current non-LTR release) is good, just
because that's how it is now. This is the *biggest* failing of the QGIS
project when stacked up against commercial alternatives. Can you imagine a
professional software package being released without full docs?

I know that we just don't have the resources to improve this to where it
should be, but perhaps this would be an argument to slow down the release
cycle.

To make it absolutely clear: that fact that current latest release of QGIS
doesn't have docs is a huge failure.
