If you are new to Emacs, it would be useful. I wouldn't call that tutorial "mini"! It is clear you put a very big effort into this. You should get a medal, or some part of the gold stashed in IET, the International Emacs Treasury (if there is one). But, this makes me think, did you experience any shortcomings or "gaps" in the official Emacs manual? Perhaps you could integrate your project with it, somehow. If not, the official Emacs people should put a link to your project from the official site, at least, if they didn't already. Feedback on the material itself: the part on MELPA, what I can see it misses one essential part, namely how to *submit* code: both how that is done in practice, and guidelines on the Elisp itself (or references, if you don't feel like writing this all over).
