I am getting ready to release another open source project out into the wild. I want to know what everyone out there thinks about evaluating a software project as a whole.
Specifically what information do you look for?
Here are some topics I plan to cover:
* the purpose of the software
* the philosophy of why this application was developed
* an in depth summary about the intended audience for the software
* a feature comparison between this software and existing solutions
* full technical documentation about the software internals
What other topics could I cover in the documentation that you the users find valuable to know?
