Thanks for the offer, Kenneth, there's certain lots that could be done!  As you 
may know, Georg Brandl has been the Release Team documentation expert for many 
years, including providing Sphinx and the migration to it.  More recently, 
Georg has had to cut back drastically on his Python time and has given up the 
role.  Julian Palard has been assuming the doc expert role; he has been 
spearheading the overall documentation translation projects and for some time 
has been the go-to person for the on-line documentation system 
(docs.python.org).

As Brian already noted, the Docs Sig is the place for docs related work.  I 
would suggest you contact Julian and the Docs Sig.  They can also perhaps help 
with some of the history of the docs and some of the issues involved in 
changing them.  And, if you haven't seen it already, the Python Developer's 
Guide contains a lot of information about helping with the documentation and 
becoming a core contributor.
