Joseph,
Because for a long time I wasn't reading the lists. My bad.I don't know why; I've certainly posted early versions of it to the lists.
We do need some kind of community page to make this, Mikes ramblings, blog entries, etc... available. Maybe like Patrick mentioned a Wiki or I would prefer a forum with perpetual or sticky threads.

view, I'm afraid my comment was dead on. I certainly tried to start a documentation effort; I've gotten -0- support on it (despite being clearly not the expert, if you've read that document).
Looks like Toby would be willing to help out.
Let's try to get these kinds of docs where people can find them. With the distribution.
The comments I've gotten on that document have been surprisingly positive,
far more so than I expected. For some users, it was like a "raise your

That document was meant for a few things: one was to give an easier
learning curve for newbies, maybe. Another was to goad, and maybe give
what *I* thought was one angle to documenting things for newbies (another
email I got about it was dead on: it makes a LOT of assumptions about the

webwork, they'll be fine; if the reader isn't really familiar with MVC,
they're gonna be just as lost.)
Should we point someone to an MVC pattern dco or write one ourselves.
I'd be happy to remove the document some day. I really hope there's noIf it's useful I'd rather see it integrated with the docs that get distributed with WebWork or at least placed somewhere people can find them.
