Yeah I get that feeling as well... The conceptual documentation is good and has been getting better and better. Also the getting starting docs lead you down the paths you need to follow. Not sure how to get folks to find the information that is in front of them. I guess folks are a little impatient and don't want to read things closely enough... IMHO grab a book or two, hit up http://www.cocoadevcentral.com/ (etc.) and MOST IMPORTANTLY read the getting started and conceptual documentation in all of the areas that the book and online tutorials touch on. More often then not when someone asks a question on this list I am able to type a few words into google scoped to Apple's developer site and hit on the conceptual docs that I can then link to help answer the question. So I find the information exists and is usually more then sufficient (when not I file feedback). -Shawn _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
