Our Will Robertson has produced a great manual for fontspec, but some TeX developers who have written manuals would have done better to recruit someone else to do it for them. A developer's duty is to write well commented code, and to be willing to work with writers of documentation to help them get it right.

There is an interesting paper titled "If writers can't program and programmers can't write, who's writing user documentation?" -- see http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=10563.10574.
