Hi there
I'd like to help too. For my sins, I wrote policies for Govt. and
speeches for politicians for money, but also technical manuals for fun.
I run a non profit now that audits public sector projects, in the hope
of more sustainability and impact.
I love the high quality and zero cost of LibreOffice and will do what I
can to help.

I will set up accounts for both of you on the ODFAuthors website. That is where
we keep working copies of the files for the user guides. You should register
for an account on the wiki, if you don't already have one (you can do that
yourself, unlike at ODFAuthors). The wiki is where we track the work (who is
doing what) and keep other information for and about the project. You don't
need an account to read what's there, only to edit it.

The Contributors Guide includes our writing style guide as well as info on file
naming and other procedural topics. I am in the process of updating some of the
info.
The high priority work at this time is updating the Calc Guide and Base
Handbook to LibreOffice v4.1. If you are interested in working on either of
them, I can point you to more info on what's needed.
We also have a wish list of other (mostly shorter) items to write, edit, or
update: tutorials, how tos, FAQs, tips and hints... In addition, research on
what's missing or needs better explanation in our user docs, and contributions
to the Docs Team's blog, are always needed.
