If you wanted to start with the documentation, I noticed that there are some items in 
the Newbie FAQ

* http://struts.apache.org/faqs/newbie.html

that could be integrated into the main documentation, particularly the ones regarding 
ActionForms. It's mainly cut and paste from one XML doc to another, and then 
recompiling the web site to see if it renders. (There's a special Ant target for just 
recompiling the web site.)

You can then create a diff (or patch) of the changes. There are some good instructions 
here:

* http://www.netbeans.org/community/contribute/patches.html

And attach the diff to a Bugzilla report.

Another thing would be to review the enhancement reports, especially those with 
patches, and form your own opinion as to whether they patch should be applied or 
retired, and append your comment to the report. A summary report regarding all the 
reports would also be nice, if someone were administratively-inclined. [But I think 
you already said that infrastructure wasn't your thing :)]

If you think a patch is worthwhile, do be sure to try it yourself. New features should 
be accompanied by new tests, even if it is just something we can click on through 
Taglib-Exercises.
