Please, by all means submit; a) New articles, following the examples under doc/en*/articles/ and b) Amendments to the FAQ and Handbook, either as diffs if it's alterations to existing copy, or additions if you're adding new text. We like both kinds of changes. See http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/ for details about submitting changes and additions using the PR system, which lets these things be tracked.
