Frank:
If you haven't already, then I would ping the GNOME
documentation project's mailing list with similar
questions. Information about this mail list is here:
http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-doc-list
Also, note that Pat Costello (who I don't think even works
for Sun anymore) is still listed as the Sun docs rep. If
you (or someone you know) is now working on this, probably
should get this updated and intrdouce yourself to the
community:
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gdp/team.html
Here is information about how to get involved with the
GNOME docs team:
http://live.gnome.org/DocumentationProject/Join
Hope this helps. I think the best steps are to get
involved directly with the community, and find out what
gaps they are aware of. I'm sure they would appreciate
your help.
