I think this is a great decision and am very pleased to hear the news.

I don't have anyone specific in mind but I suggest that you use the
ubuntu-doc mailing list, the forums and the planet to call for
possible contributors who could help with this. Once people come
forward to help with these, we can help answer any questions they have
and to fill any gaps in the documentation.

I agree. The page may be old, but the basic points that are made there
remain valid and important and are a good starting point for forums
contributors interested in transferring material from the forum to the
help wiki.
