I want to contribute to the documentation, how can I help?
I'd like to contribute to the Drupal Commerce project by writing documentation. That's the stuff every body hates to do but every one else wishes existed :)
I'm still wet around the ears when it comes to Drupal and Ubercart but I'm pretty good at technical writing. I'm happy to help write anything, from setup instructions to API documentation.
How can I help?

Awesome :)
Like you said, this is something everyone wishes existed and most people hate to write. Documentation seems to be the main thing lacking from most of the useful modules around, I think having someone, or a team of someones working on this from virtually the beginning of the project is going to be a huge benefit. :)
Right on, Will, and glad to
Right on, Will, and glad to hear from you, totsubo. The documentation we've written thus far has been based around our development process, standards, etc. What remains to do is keep a running specification handbook and to document the API as it's fleshed out. The latest work at the moment is in my repository at http://github.com/rszrama/drupalcommerce, and it contains product type and product APIs with Views support and a default admin View. The only things I'd say are missing at this point are API functions to create new product types / products (i.e. return an initialized object instead of always using stdClass), a product view page (have edit / delete already), and appropriate calls to drupal_alter(). There are still questions to be answered regarding the code, but it's a good bit of the work toward having fieldable entities.
So, like Will said, having someone keep up with it from the start would be awesome. How much of the code that's there, specifically in the modules/product directory, do you understand?
