In many papers and postings free software/open source movement (or however
you want to call it) is referred as meritocracy e.g. more you contribute
more you are valued. Thus I would agree it would be wrong for any
documentation project to have "exclusive" rights to write documentation
for certain open platform. Also competition between projects similar to
competition between GNOME and KDE in my opinion is a good thing. So why
not two documentation projects.
