Hi,

Many thanks for your proposal.

1. The content can be found where the code is (in KDE SVN [1] or KDE Git  
[2]). Usually documentation is stored in /doc subfolders. Some user  
documentation can also be found on KDE UserBase [3]. An exact address  
depends on what kind of documentation you like to update or write.

The current documentation is automatically converted into convenient for  
reading format. Converted docs are available through docs.kde.org [4].

2. The documentation can be updated by the direct editing of its code,  
then sending patches via review board [5], this mailing list (please  
subscribe if you want to participate) or direct commits to software  
repositories.

The current state of docs is indicated on the corresponding page [6]. It  
is a good idea to contact the developers before starting to write new docs  
to discuss the docs implementation with them.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Yuri
