Hey that's cool.<br><br>Everytime something for "start here" gets done, the product upgrades and things become out of place. Or we loose the wiki and can't update material to keep "close to -works-as-coded- descriptions" :-D
<br><br>I like the proposal -- there are sites like this that provide on-line document management, etc. There needs to be a documentation review process with checks and balances, and stable location/support -- *At least* for starter material.
<br><br>I responded mostly because the key here is that for a fancy product like NITRO, the "get started" body of work should be very simple.<br><br>There are old articles on getting a start with Ruby on Rails about. The most 'famous' is probably the one on O'Reily -- it has only been updated once, in a big way.
<br><br>I feel that people get too excited by the cool stuff and forget about the new person who know nothing. That person only needs the basics -- Just like Georges video -- What has happened to the replacement video??<br>
<br>It is all good work -- please continue. <br><br>For something really cool what about a Nitro 3-D plastic models module ... See here:<br><br> * <a href="http://www.marksman.com.au/">http://www.marksman.com.au/</a><br>
<br>The coolest thing so far (apart from Nitro).<br><br>... Will.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 13/06/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Arne Brasseur</b> <<a href="mailto:arne@arnebrasseur.net">arne@arnebrasseur.net
