Please refer to this table:

Please refer to this folder (boilerplate of the new documentation):

http://websvn.kde.org/branches/work/doc/

I agree with you. But nobody wants to write common documentation (except  
those valuable developers and translators who made cells in heath table  
green).

Hope someday when documentation on Userbase become oldish and deprecated  
(if today's state of art does not change it will be very soon), somebody  
will say "Hey, let's write docbooks: its' much easier than this oldish  
wikis". Dialectics... ;)
