Getting Drupal 7 Documented

I recently agreed to take on two new roles in the Drupal open-source project: maintainer of the core Search module, and documentation volunteer coordinator, specifically for the in-code API documentation that's displayed on api.drupal.org. I'm excited to be part of helping Drupal 7 come together, but to make it really successful, we need your help to get Drupal 7 documented! We need to get the API and Module Update Guide documentation fixed up, so that module developers can make their modules available for Drupal 7, and we need to get the Handbook updated for Drupal 7 so that less expert users can figure out how to use it.

Pretty much anyone can help in this effort. To get you started, we have a page listing what needs to be done, and both Ariane (arianek) and I (jhodgdon) are often available on IRC (#drupal-docs or #drupal-contribute). So feel free to jump in at any time!

Also, if you're headed for DrupalCon San Francisco in April, please consider coming for the Sunday or Thursday sprint days. We will have documentation sprints going on, and people available to get you started, point you to tasks, etc.

Thanks!
