Sure, you don't need a github account at all, and no credit cards are
required :)
I'm assuming you've got the git client installed on your computer
("apt-get install git" or "yum install git" or if you're on some
platform without a package management system get it from
http://git-scm.com/).
Then, to get a copy of the development tree and see what documentation
files are present, you'd do:
git clone https://github.com/openssl/openssl
cd openssl/doc
ls crypto/ ssl/
edit the documentation you want to fix, generate a patch using "git
diff" and send it to this list attached to an explanatory e-mail.
