And to echo Dan (and to meta-echo Dan), I've started a checklist of 
things to include in the release notes here:

http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=dev:release_notes_checklist

If you're looking for specific areas to contribute to, compare the 
checklist with the current state of the release notes.  In particular, 
since I know several users have been testing various pre-gold releases 
of 2.1, there's already some experience in the wild to inform the 
install and upgrade sections and to translate the descriptions of some 
of the new features to what they mean for librarians.

Of course, if you want to make suggestions or changes to the checklist 
itself, feel free - it's on the wiki.

Regards,

Galen
