I'm hoping that at some point we will have something similar to
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?introduction=yes
where for questions like "how do I import graphics" and "what should I
use to write a letter" particular packages are recommended, and reasons
for choosing one over another are given. I've found this invaluable when
doing LaTeX stuff.
Thanks
