Reading about this type of confusion - count me in - I need to ask:

Where is the process of building up help files documented? Seen from my
current knowledge there are many new tools and facts I do not know or
understand.

If not already done or trivial, I'd suggest writing or better drawing a
chart of the targets, sources and tools to use when wanting to write
documentation.

Although this may sound ugly to some of you, some sort of graph with
notes and explanations would be very easy readable and understandable.

For now I stepped back to something that came to my mind very early as a
task attractive for me. Taht is writing some (short) tutorials on topics
where I myself have had problems understanding inner workings of
components or documentation already written.
