It highly depends:

If you think that open source projects are *exclusivley*
for those people who contribute on it and who are so involved
that they don't need any documentation because they already
know everything and have the time to keep track on all changes
then, yes, there is no need for documentation.

But if you want to attract a wider audience of people who
just use it then documentation is essential.
Otherwise you have to answer the same questions here over
and over again (or ignore them and let people use other,
better documented tools for programming).
