Yes, count me in :)

I'm just waiting for this to happen... but it seems to take some time.

Besides the why/when/how documentation I'd also like to propose to add more 
function references (@see) in the documentation. Trolltech does this for a 
long time already (see assistant 3.x), example:
  QString QString::right ( uint len ) const 
  [...]
  See also left(), mid(), and isEmpty().

I often feel that such references are really missing in KDE documentation.
Examples:
  void KPushButton::setText();
  missing reference to: @see text()

  QColor KColorButton::color();
  missing references to: @see setColor() defaultColor()

Such references are extremely helpful for developers who do not know the API 
very well, _especially_ if corresponding functions are (hidden) in 
inherited classes. All kdelibs should have this @see-references, it should 
be a policy, too.

Any comments?
