Hi Dennis:

You're in the right place, welcome aboard! We have a wiki page on how to
contribute to the docs here:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/HowTo

If you're interested in contributing but don't have a particular doc change
in mind yet, I suggest you snag one of the open bugs in our tracker:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals

Once you find one you'd like to work on, assign yourself to the bug, and
then submit your change when ready.

If you have any questions, just let us know. You can either post to this
list, or drop by the #openstack-doc IRC channel on freenode.net.


Take care,

Lorin
