Very happy to do it, and to do it however you think is best. I owe you guys a heap for creating MODX, so don't be afraid to make vigorous suggestions. I'm happy to do whatever gets quality documentation into the hands of non-code-savvy end users.
I would offer a stronger opinion about how to encourage enhancement to the document if I had better data about what would work. The truth is that I don't know is the best model for growing a plain-English end-user guide like this, i.e. collaboratively developing it.
However, I have not yet had any outside contributions emailed to me, which suggests it is time to try some other authoring model. I'd suggest that the best model might be a Wiki.
The Word document was created in that format only because that allowed people to take my work, easily adapt it as a PDF or Kindle or RTF document, and distribute it to end-users.
