[documentation] Need CVS + Drupal Issues guidance: How to help fix API documentation formatting

[Mr. Meitar Moscovitz]

Hi all,

Surfing the docs issue queue today, I found an issue referring to a  
formatting fix for the API docs. I did a bit of searching and found  
this, which talks about how to make API documentation fixes:

http://drupal.org/node/144223

I don't have—or want, really—a CVS committer account, mostly because  
I've never used CVS in my life. (I use Subversion when I have to, but  
prefer git.) As a result, I'm not entirely sure how to go about  
progressing this issue:

http://drupal.org/node/254522#comment-866484

Seems the issue is fixed for Drupal 7 and CVS HEAD, so I'm betting  
it's not even a high-priority issue, but that's exactly the kind of  
issue I'd like to use to familiarize myself with the process. :)

I submitted a (`diff -u`) patch against Drupal 6.2, which I uploaded  
to the comments of the issue report. What happens next?

The "Updating API documentation" node seems to want me to use the  
"Drupal" project, but there isn't an obvious component in that project  
I can submit the issue against. The original submitter of the issue  
used the "Documentation" project and selected "Documentation in CVS"  
as the component, which is exactly what I would have done, not knowing  
any better.

Thanks,
