When you say that the Docs are for developers only, then your are absolutely right. How else will they know if this is something that they will be able to use in their project if they have no idea about how its used and what specific features they can expect. And its precisely why its a wise move to allow people access to the documentation.
They aren't about to take your word for it, or anyone elses for that matter. People want to see for themselves and make their own judgement, and the documentation is a good way of doing just that.
So I think that Noel is right, when he is asking to see the documentation, and I think that you will find that not all people are looking for a chance at picking it apart, they just want a better base on which to make their decision on whether to go for it or not.
