Funny meeting you here ;)

Anyways, what I have done is checked out the following trunk/*/doc 
directories: (* is the following directory)

kdeaccessibility
kdeadmin
kdeedu
kdegraphics
kdemultimedia
kdepim
kdetoys
kdevelop
koffice
kdeaddons
kdebase
kdegames
kdelibs
kdenetwork
kdesdk
kdeutils
kdewebdev

I placed all of these in a trunk/ directory and then created a script called 
masterup.sh that will update all of the directories at once.

#!/bin/sh

for x in trunk/*; do
        y=$(basename ${x})
        echo ${y}
        svn up trunk/${y}
done

So I have my main doc directory ~/KDE/ and under that is kdoctools/ and trunk/ 
as well as my masterup script. kdoctools has all of the xslt files and tools 
needed for doc building. All I have been doing is creating patches for bugs 
as they show up on this list.

Hope this helps you a little bit, but I am sure Phil or one of the other 
master KDE doc people will be by to welcome you as well.
