Hi :) If the documentation is available but needs pulling together and de-geekifying then the Docs Team are a good place to do that. If it needs writing from scratch (scuse the pun) then some devs probably need to be involved too.
Writing code and writing documentation for technical readers is a radically different skill-set from writing so that the rest of us can understand it.
