That devs in FOSS projects are 1st-class citizens and doc writers are 2nd/3rd has been so pervasive for so long, that I *still* I dismiss my almost 20yrs of writing and only treat my relatively small code as my "real" contribution. Glad to see some communities trying to fix this.

@kyle one of the discussions I had with my team today was in fact the importance of documentation. It's now a performance target for the year for everyone on my team.
That said, my process for documentation occurs while I'm writing whatever I'm writing. This is, for me, mostly due to the fact I often question my abilities in even languages I use daily. Documenting what I am trying to do helps me accomplish the goal, and avoid perpetual feature creep.
