Our existing documentation is in an open wiki; and code repository. Open source projects do not generally have spare volunteers to help :-)
Your existing instructions look fine thus far; if your shapefiles had a sidecar "sld" file uDig would take that as the default style (and not trouble your users with a " probably create a pretty ugly map").
The closest document we have to yours is:
When your document is complete we can of course add it to the wiki "Getting Started" section; and it will be included in subsequent releases of uDig.

uDig Community,
I am interested in providing a tutorial that includes uDig, and I would
like to
ask for your help. I am a masters candidate for graduation at Penn State
World
Campus with a Masters in Geographic Information Systems degree. My
capstone
project is a Blueprint for Open Source Web Mapping. I am creating a step
by
step outline for the public's use to create open source web maps of a
topic of
their choice. I would greatly appreciate feedback from you to improve my
project. I am releasing a draft of the Blueprint at http://mballingercapstone.web.officelive.com/default.aspx. I would then hope to work with you during the
next month to make sure the Blueprint is a valuable addition to existing
documentation. Thank you for your consideration.
