Recently I have been corresponding with two people (an instructional designer and a university instructor of technical communication who is looking for real-life writing projects for her students) about producing tutorials or how-to's targeted at specific audience. These docs would supplement the user guides by addressing specific projects that members of the target audiences typically need to do. Quite often, people don't know what questions to ask to find out what they can do or how to do it.

I have added two pages to the wiki and put myself on the main tutorials page as the owner:

Guidelines for writing tutorials
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Dashboard/Tutorials/Guidelines

Tutorials targeted at specific audiences
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Dashboard/Tutorials/Targeted

Please feel free to add your ideas to these pages or discuss them on the list.
