The language has been pretty stable (no breaking changes) since 1.0. The bigger issue is that unlike many of the other newer programming languages (Go, Rust, Swift etc) Julia doesn't have a fortune 500 company sponsoring it, so there aren't any people who's job is documentation. It's all open-source. Hopefully this is fixable through Google Summer of Docs and/or the community sponsoring people to work on this.

They do what they can, including things like [1] recently discussed here, but they're not exactly a Fortune-500 company yet.
