While there are some aspects of the documentation that require a familiarity with the source I don't think that is true in general. If someone has a suggestion to improve part of the documentation that they found hard to understand we should be encouraging them to contribute a patch. There is no doubt that there are places where our documentation could be improved and it is not necessary to be a C programmer to contribute improvements to it.
