For my .02, I'd think some work on an authoritative rank-beginner document would be excellent. For the new-to-Unix Debian user. I know that's a tall order; I think maybe the User manual in the DDP (which is mostly TBD) was probably intended to almost do that.

Another idea that's come up before is an FAQ for debian-user.
This is the only suggestion I received, but jumping in head-first always hurts, so may I ask if there are others who think this is a good idea?
My own experience is that the sparc-list gets the very same questions over-and-over-and-over again, all well answered in the FAQ which it appears doesn't get read by the "rank-beginner".
If I put a spin on the suggestion from Chris:
What is the response to a one-page document called: "So you want to do Debian, but don't have time to read everything." -- ()/)/)() ..ASCII for Onno.. |>>? ..EBCDIC for Onno.. --- -. -. --- ..Morse for Onno..
