no, we're short on documentation, so that's all we've got :-(

yes, it's really really urgent, se it would be really great if you could
start working on such a document. The best thing, IMO, is to complete
the current API documentation to leave it as a complete reference
document. For this, you just need to use the
libgda/doc/C/libgda-docs.sgml file along with the documentation
associated to each function, which is in special comments (/** ... */)
in the source code (libgda/libgda/*.c
