Sounds like you have a solid step one Chris.

Here's the inkscape-docs group on gitlab, EVERYONE should join, there
should be a button to join:

https://gitlab.com/inkscape-docs

And here's the new book/manual/docs project where files can be put:

https://gitlab.com/inkscape/manuals

I recommend using the wiki attached to the project to plan the
adventure slowly. Add a bit at a time and don't rush to have something
"complete" but have something small produced.
