This project isn't trustworthy.  It has one developer, NO release notes, NO documentation, NO FAQ, NO comprehensive forum discussions... NOTHING at all except the code.  I don't know this single developer, don't know how old (s)he is or the country in which (s)he resides, but clearly (s)he fails to grasp the connection between effective documentation and trustworthiness.  How can I, as someone completely unfamiliar with the details of the project or the character and ability of the developer(s), be expected to trust the result enough to even download and test it?  Unfortunately this is a problem all too common to most of the SourceForge projects and common to many of the developers I've known personally; they can't spell worth a damn and can't construct a coherent page in English for the life of them!  God only knows how they can manage to "write" effectively in what amounts to a foreign non-native language....
