I can help, however, by reading such readmes on the packages I know enough about and then telling someone if I consider it obsolete or current.
That might be actually helpfull

For each package containing a such obsolete content, just open a bug so maintainer get warned directly (I guess some of them are no more on this ML).
Adding valuable and refreshed content will increase the chance to get a fix. Help in doing and fixing shit is always appreciate in terms of contribution.
Ok, I can do that. One bugzilla per file - is there a list of readmes? Or I may just work on those I have installed on my main system, as those are the ones of packages that I use.
Yep one bug per file, they will all have different maintainers. Start with the ones you know, short of installing every package I don't think there is a easy way to know unless we add a rpmlint warning / error for them.
Ok, I have these - notice the dates, most are recent:

There are more files, for instance:

And then there is SuSEfirewall2, but I doubt you want to touch that one :-)
