I have done editing before; I was a proofreader for the Open Document
team for years. But I have *zero* experience of svn and I don't
understand docbook/xml at all. Still, if there are any simple jobs that
I could do to help, I would be willing.

I've been using LFS for some years now and it's probably my favourite
distro. Maybe it's time to give something back.
