Yes, it is possible to send snippets or (preferably) patches on the
current sgml docs. For a new doc chapter or section, I can mark it up in
SGML if you find that daunting.

Arbitrarily and capriciously ;) There are several folks who have
familiarity with the current docs, and who seem to lack any inhibitions
about changing them. So if you send something in, one of us will likely
plop it into the relevant section. Sometimes it is best to run your
ideas and intended contribution by the mailing list to get some feedback
early on. In this case, we know you are looking at the PL/SQL language,
and so plsql.sgml is the likely target. Fire away...
