Hi,

Firstly, welcome aboard!

That's great! I'm on the Documentation Team, and we're quite thin on the 
ground, so your offer of help is very much appreciated. :-)

As a first step, you probably want to look around on http://i18n.kde.org/doc , 
where you'll find some general information about the tools and procedures we 
use for writing documentation. I would also recommend that you subscribe to 
kde-doc-english at kde.org ('Other Resources'->'Mailing List' on the website 
above). It's quite a low traffic list, but it's the main place for 
documentation-specific discussion.

On the 'Currrent Jobs' page at http://i18n.kde.org/doc/current.php , there are 
links to documentation bugs in the bug database. If any of those pique your 
interest, please feel free to take them up.

If there's nothing there that you'd like to do, get back to us, and I'm sure 
we can find something :-)

Regards,
Phil
