Yeah, I think that's approximately what you get right now if you read tutorial.txt followed by core-tutorial.txt, though the two currently may not really work together well as sequels. So I'm inclined to start by revising the two to make them read well as sequels, then maybe moving some of core-tutorial.txt into the earlier tutorial.txt. By the time we're done the two might end up being one document. Or they might still be two, but with the split being more clearly beginning/advanced instead of high-level/low-level. Feedback from people who'd actually worked through the two would obviously be useful. --b. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Wed Feb 01 07:58:09 2006
