OK, let's just start it. I'd like to have the tutorial on
orgmode.org/worg. But I'm not yet sure about the structure.
Option (A)
is, to create an .../worg/the-org-tutorial/index.org, that just
contains an index to the chapters. Each chapter goes to a single file
in that directory.
Option (B)
Put the entire thing into one big file. This has the advantage, that
we wouldn't need to create any extra directories on worg:
orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/the-org-tutorial.org
| | (A) Multiple files | (B) Monolitic |
|----------------------------+--------------------+---------------|
| Outlining a skeleton | - | + |
| Restructure | - | + |
| Multiple editors | + | - |
| Distribution (e.g. as PDF) | - | + |
| Easy navigation | + | - |
|----------------------------+--------------------+---------------|
| Sum | -1 | +1 |
Thoughts?
BTW: The first user in the tutorial is called Allice. I wanted to call
her Trillian, but I'm afraid, people would let her add tasks, that are
not easily understood :-D
The readers are supposed to use their brain to understand Org-mode...
