But the docs for contributing are not very good at https://github.com/apache/kafka. It just gives me a URL for svn. But I am not sure what to do. Can the README.MD file be improved for contributing to docs?

I understand what that means but isn't this process a bit too complex? While submitting patches to groovy/grails it was very easy. If this is due to not having a git mirror then let me know how I can help. I read https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/git_based_websites_available but I am not sure how I can help there. As per this it needs a ticket with apache infra team. Do you mean the migration from SVN to git? If yes, let me know.

As I understand, there is a desire to move it to Git and that would make things simpler for contributors. If you are interested in helping out, I suggest you send an email to development mailing list proposing this so that we get a wider audience. One of the questions is whether the website should be part of the same Git repository as the code or a different one. There are pros and cons for each approach. Maybe you can also discuss this aspect in your email message.
