For my part, I'm only dealing with user docs, and desperately in need of help. In fact, if you want to help in the immediate term, that's what I'm doing right now (which is sort of tedious - reading through the docs along with the apps to id the ones that really don't need help.) If you can help with that, I'll give anyone interested a list of which ones they could look at. It's pretty important everyone coordinate with me, just so we don't duplicate effort, since we don't have a lot of resources to spare. There's a fair bunch of apps that are quite mature, and the docs will need little or even no work. That'd be things like most of the games, and the smaller utilities, toys, things in kdeadmin etc. Off the top if my head, absolute top priority is Konqueror, which recently became unmaintained. There's an excellent doc in place, it probably needs fairly minimal work to bring up to date for KDE 3.2. Next would be kmail, which also has a very well done and complete doc, but I know Daniel could do with some help giving it a final update (please contact him directly if you want to work on that) I consider these flagship KDE apps, and it's vital they have Second most important is the FAQ which quite frankly is a disaster and hasn't been really maintained in a couple of years. Next up would be the applications that have no docs at all, and are new to KDE - Kontact would have to be the most urgent of these, Kopete is another. I'll have a more complete list in a day or so, when I've finished going through them all (you would be astonished how many apps are in KDE nowdays!)
