Absolutely! If you can suggest which doc sections should be altered and 
proposed wording, that would be a great start.

Bonus points if you send it in as a patch against the corresponding sgml

Note, I recently gave a talk on the subject -- feel free to get 
examples, etc from the slides:

I can also help with wordsmithing and committing the changes once we 
have them fully baked.
