Hi,

In an effort to lower the barrier to entry for new and potential
contributors to KDE, I'm making a few techbase pages to guide people in the
process of becoming a contributor.

http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Contributor_Paths

I want to get help here on finding what the steps are to become a documenter
for KDE. What are the entry points? Where are the resources? What are the
tasks? What is the easy stuff? 

My draft ideas are below

****************

This page is for people who want to become a documenter of KDE.

== Dive in ==
* understanding docbook xml.
* [[creating patches]]
* [[what to document]] --- don't micro document each standard item. Focus on
use cases and getting things done with the application
* Get in touch with the developers.

== resources ==
* docs.kde.org
* Guidelines for writing docs?
* userbase
* ?
