One of the things I brought up at FUDCon this past week was the idea of writing some documentation to help people get up to speed in the Fedora ARM efforts -- a secret decoder ring, if you will, of things they'll need to know to be successful.
In an effort to help kick off that documentation, I've written up a quick outline. Nothing is carved in stone yet -- it's just a simple outline of the things I personally would like to see covered. I'm not going to write it all myself (both because I don't have the requisite knowledge, and I want to give others a chance to help out), but I'm more than willing to help get the documentation into DocBook for the Fedora Docs team to publish if people will help me flesh it out.
I'll paste the working outline below, but let me point out that this is supposed to be a living document, so I've put it on an Etherpad instance so that people can add/move/edit at will while we're figuring things out. The link to the Etherpad instance is http://piratepad.net/L1jH2TLCBO
So tell me -- what would you like to see covered that isn't in the outline already? Is there a section you'd be willing to adopt and help finish? Please let me know...

I definitely volunteer to be a test subject for helping make sure it's clear to those who're new to ARM. :) I can give feedback on what is understandable and what requires references and all...
