Furthermore, you can always get the GHC HEAD documentation here

Simon, if the less-talented among us (like me) want to contribute to GHC's docs -- and especially documenting the libraries -- what's the best way to go about this? I'm not too comfortable with the notion of just going into GHC's guts and Haddocking the comments, contributing patches willy-nilly because I'd not be certain I did the job right, that I explained things correctly where I had to amplify, etc. Is there some kind of documentation team we poor souls could interact with to assist?
