Please let me > know if you guys are interested in my request :) Generally we are, with the caveat that getting volunteers to have the time to look at submissions can require persistence and manual pestering. You'll likely want to read https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/ and submit some bugzilla entries (https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=Documentation). Feel free to hop on to #bsddocs on efnet as well, whether for questions/discussion or to pester people to look at your patches. -Ben
