Many projects suffer more from lack of good sample or reference applications than good features.
If you want to get attention, show people how to use a technology in a way they haven't thought of before. For example, one of the real accelerators for Ruby on Rails has been the success of BaseCamp, which is a really good sample application for RoR.
In our project http://sourceforge.net/projects/activegrid/, we have posted a number of ToDos related not just to features but to providing examples of how to use the features http://dev.activegrid.com/community/?q=node/179
To misquote, a sample is worth a thousand features;-)
