No, but, who do you expect to do all the work?  FreeBSD is developed by
_volunteers_.  The current documentation team seems to be fairly saturated.

People who complain that things are broken but then don't pitch in to help
fix the brokenness don't improve the state of FreeBSD.  It takes a fully
cooperative effort from all concerned.

I really don't know what other response you should expect.
