So, do you mean you won't document anything you won't be paid
for?  This is probably Microsoft's way, not FreeBSD's.
I work with FreeBSD for 3+ years, and contribute to it for free...

I just complained why David didn't document this feature when it
was committed.  Unfortunately, there was no response from him.
Probably, he's very busy now.  So, I ask _you_ to document this
feature for others... not for me.  I already understand how it
does work.

When someone introduces a new feature, how others will know about
it?  Without documenting it, the only way for them is to read the
commitlogs or wait until someone tells them about this feature.
