None of this is an excuse for not contributing.

If you contribute now, by the time we come to a final version/solution, 
there will be lots of help included. Your work will not get lost if it is
submitted and checked in.

As it is now, you don't contribute, wait for a final version to start
contributing. Meaning that the 'lots of help' will be there only much later
(if ever).

Even the work of DoDi on notes has not been lost. It was simply converted to the
existing solution. Mattias went to great lengths to achieve that. One can
only admire his patience and willingness to help.

So please stop mailing and actually start coding or documenting.

Michael.
