RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: docbook -> pdf

[Jeff Beal <jeff.beal@ansys.com>]

It seems to me that either of the following would be reasonable options:

  1) Set up a section on the Wiki and request that anyone who wants to write
a tutorial write it as part of the Wiki
  2) Set up a public CVS project for a massively collaborative tutorial
written in DocBook

I think the first option would be simpler, but the second option would be
more valuable in the long run.  The hard part would be organizing and
defining that "massively collaborative" idea.

Some may say that we already have the best of both worlds, because there's a
page in the Wiki that lists multiple DocBook tutorials.  I looked through
these a little bit today, and there's quite a bit of duplicate introductory
material spread throughout these tutorials.

Additional thoughts?

Jeff

Good point Jeff.

they are getting rather profuse and widespread.
  Suggestions how to join/link/merge or otherwise
make them more cohesive?
