WordPress 2.1 needs more developer documentation

I installed WordPress 2.1 today, eager to make use of some of the new plugin features only to find that there isn't really any documentation on them. I'd like to echo the sentiment mentioned here and say that WordPress really does need stronger developer documentation. I want to be able to look to the documentation not to decrypt the innter workings of some new feature, but to get an idea of what is possible.

    Hello,

    The problem some folks had about the widget displaying an warning is due to running an old version of WP.

    Here’s my fix for the 2.0.1:

    Change:
    add_action(âwidgets_initâ, âwidget_archive_drop_initâ);
    To:
    add_action(âplugins_loadedâ, âwidget_archive_drop_initâ);

    Them change:
    wp_get_archives(âtype=monthly&show_post_count=$c&format=optionâ);

    To:
    get_archives(âmonthlyâ,â”,âoptionâ,$c);

    Hope it helps you.
    Nice extension but poor support.
