I think you've missed the point a little here.  If an author is writing
free docs then he or she _is_ actively helping a project.  A
documentation project is nothing without content, and thus the content
developers (aka: writers/editors/translators/proofreaders/etc) are much
more important than the people coordinating the website, mailing lists,
etc.

Top priority is the documentation.  All else is secondary.  Never make
the mistake of underestimating the value of your contributors.
