I'm not sure what you have in mind. Are you thinking of writing stuff for
newbies to add to the FreeBSD documentation, or do you want to make them
change it, or do you want to set up some documentation somewhere else away
from the FreeBSD site?

Of course the main point is getting the stuff written, but there are
different ways to do it that will get you different kinds of help.
It depends on what you want.
