Yep it could be the right first step indeed.<br>

Just note that several of us are not native English speakers, but<br>
being fluent in English is very useful when dealing with<br>
documentation. It doesn't want to discourage you, just a warning. Be<br>
sure that there will be native speakers that will correct you in case<br>
something is very wrong :)<br>

About that specific issue, take care of the notes where not every<br>
function in __all__ should be documented. About contributing, did you<br>
read the <a href="http://docs.python.org/devguide/" target="_blank">http://docs.python.org/devguide/</a> ? There it's written how to<br>
checkout the Python source code (that contains documentation too) and<br>
prepare patches.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes I have read the information at the link you provided. And have already checked out the source code on my development machine. One question though. If I am done with creating the patch, would it be ok if I post it here for review? Because it's my first time and all. </div>
