If somebody who knows what's necessary mails me off-list with the information on how to get started, I would be willing hack up Ash's reply into a fairly minimal doc patch in whichever location is appropriate.

There is a wiki node on it: http://wiki.catalystframework.org/wiki/contrib

If you just connect to irc.perl.org, join #catalyst and then say, "I want to contribute a doc patch to [something]" you shouldn't have a problem finding an eager mentor to also help guide you through the process.

You can also easily contribute to the Catalyst wiki (http://wiki.catalystframework.org/wiki/), which has a very low barrier to entry and you can ask for people to proofread what you have written by simply posting to the mailing list here.

Thanks,
