We are in the process of renovating the website, and there will be an 
end user document area with the following categories (still subject to 
change):
Audio & Video
Hardware
Installation
Networking
Preferences
Tracker & Deskbar

Perhaps you could start with the very basics by writing short how to's 
for the existing Preferences apps (ie., how to adjust screen resolution, 
how to change the fonts, etc.). Screenshots (with thumbnails when 
necessary) are also good to have; it may also be wise to note the Haiku 
version info (rev # in About Haiku window).
Once the renovated website is in place, then it should be easier to 
contribute content. But at this point in time, I am not sure what the 
best way would be to submit the content, as the existing content will 
have to be migrated to the renovated site as it organizes content a bit 
differently. Maybe you can start writing, and just send me the 
html+graphics in a zip file for now.
Cheers,

Koki
