This sounds a bit like the idea we had for the youtube videos. Practical tutorials sort of thing. I wouldn't mind having both videos and text, though as you say, there are existing tutorials for most major applications. Doesn't mean we can't make our own. I'm thinking about how documentation should be organized. Tutorials would deserve their own section. If we have a main "Documentation" page on our website, it could have several subpages, and one of them could be something equivalent to "Tutorials", where you can find all sorts of resources, either our own made material, or links to existing stuff. So, I'm all for it. -- ubuntu-studio-devel mailing list ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
