Hi Gus, I'd be happy to include something you write in Learning gem5 (feel free to fork it on github and submit a pull request! https://github.com/powerjg/learning_gem5). We also have periodic gem5 users workshops where you can present information like this. In fact, I'm running a gem5 tutorial at ASPLOS this year ( http://learning.gem5.org/tutorial/index.html). If you have something prepared by then it could be a good place to present it.
I'm also thinking about other ideas for people to contribute to gem5 documentation. I'll let you know if anything materializes.
