That's great, welcome! :)

The main documentation for NetBSD - apart man pages - is `The NetBSD
Guide'. Appendixes A, B and C should contains everything needed to start
in contributing it:

 <https://www.NetBSD.org/docs/guide/en/index.html>

Similarly pkgsrc has `The pkgsrc guide', always written in XML/DocBook,
apart appendixes above of `The NetBSD Guide', appendix D contains some
information about the process of (re)generating it:

 <https://www.NetBSD.org/docs/pkgsrc/index.html>

Apart that we also have a wiki available at <https://wiki.NetBSD.org>.

Regarding the web pages available in www.NetBSD.org important notes
about it are available in `Editing htdocs' web page:

 <https://www.NetBSD.org/developers/htdocs.html>

If you find anything missing, that needs improvements, clarifications,
etc. contributions are more than welcomed and you can send patches
directly there or via send-pr(1)!


Thank you!
