Documentation is the thoughest part of releasing "homebrew" code IMHO.
I'm lucky to have a bunch of entousiastic helping me keeping a wiki up
to date. Also, for the getting started (my tracker definetly needs
that), we've decided to use screencasts, which is going to be nice.
Trashy test sample here:

It's reaaallly easy to do (at least under windows), it's not utube
garbage, and the fact of being able to record audio explaining what you
do is the best thing ever. Of course, it doesn't prevent from needing a
reference manual but it makes part of the explanation a lot easier.
Possibly a similar application must exist for linux

Documentation is good and honourable for programmers.
One reason the QT
library is adopted so often is the well done documentation. And I hold
back the release of my softwaresynthesizer 'Minicomputer' until I wrote
a manual.
