Hi Andy,
The documentation site is a Wiki, so all you have to do is sign up
with a user name and password and then start editing/adding wherever
you see that the documentation can be improved.

Good reply John...
How can I help? I'd like to give back, but I'm not sure where to
start. Do
you by chance have a list of ways in which people can give back to
jQuer?
That might be a good means by which to draw users tigher into the
community.

Subject: [jQuery] Re: New jQuery release, but what about documentation
The API browser will be updated when 1.2.2 is complete - it's just a
beta
release right now.
As far as the rest: Are you offering to help? We're always looking for
volunteers.

It's all well and good that the jQuery team is coming out with new
release, but what about the equally important documentation issue?
1.2.1 has been out since what Aug? Sept? And documentation still
isn't
much help?
The API browser (http://jquery.com/api/) still references version
1.1.2.
Documentation in the wiki is also not that great:
http://docs.jquery.com/Main_Page
It's very difficult to use, the search isn't very user friendly,
there's no alphabetical listing of method names, and for some reason
you guys chose to use the tabs plugin to display content in the wiki.
From a usability standpoint, that's horrible. People using the docs
are most likely looking for an answer to something that they're
working on. Forcing them to jump through extra hoops just to get
the info
they need.
