We are planning to post some of the new pages about how different
features actually work.
Hopefully we will be able to do it this week.
Stay tuned.

Contributions to documentation are always most welcome, be they 
additions to cover configurations for different platforms, or reviews, 
tests, etc., of existing documentation.


Is there any other docs that are in the planning/alpha/beta stages that you can 
share?  I can possibly edit and proof those as well.


The only doc being developed at the moment is for the next version of 
freeIPA, which is not due out for some time. You can see all available 
documentation at http://freeipa.org/page/DocumentationPortal

Sounds like documentation is the main thing here.  I'll start getting a test 
lab setup and documenting what I am doing.  

Is there any other docs that are in the planning/alpha/beta stages that you can 
share?  I can possibly edit and proof those as well.

Hi Sean,
there are a lot of things you can do.
Testing code (both freeipa and sssd + ipa provider) and reporting bugs
for example.
Also helping out with keeping freeipa.org up to date would be very
useful.
If you like writing documentation, that is very welcome too. There many
areas that are borderline and yet important for admins where howtos
would be really appreciated and so on.

You don't need a developer to help, just look at the project and
identify a week area where you think you can contribute and let us know
what you plan to do.

Simo.
