I would say the best with open source is that if the devs do not have time to look at your request then you can make a pr and if they won't approve it in time then you can fork it with the fix, that is what lemmy.world did for example. I have also needed to do just that for a few packages. Also if the docs are too simplified then you can just check out the code yourself. It have helped many times.
