Looks good so far. The sections on Ant and CVS apply to non-Windows users,
as well. And you might want to include Maven/Jelly in the section on
bulding, which currently has only Ant.
Other topics for your list: What is GUMP (just an example, I know what it
is)? The use of logged IRC channels for ASF projects (that appears to be
done on some projects -- is it generally available?). What are each of the
"internal" mailing lists, and what topics are they intended to host? I've
heard of some that don't appear to be linked from any page that I've noticed
(probably one for thie discussion, for example :-)).
In general, I'd want a document that explained the existing policies,
mechanisms, and best practices, including where to go for more detail.
