Is it an april fool? <[°]=,=<
Let's assume it isn't.
I disagree since I belive the manual is already
written as a tutorial. Let's surf the TOC (Table of
Content):
+ It begins with the introduction, the basic .emacs
lines to use Org-Mode
+ then it describes the use of Org-Mode as outline
+ then tables
+ then hyperlinks
+ TODO
+ tags
....
I think that a newbie is guided from the easy use to
exploitation of the more advanced features of
Org-Mode:
properties, finer agenda views etc...
Moreover "The OrgMode tutorial by David O'Toole"
on the worg site is not enough?

I mean, I personally asked some _really_ silly
questions here: e.g. I sought for help regarding a
bug,
but the problem was that *I* wrote badly the
"#+LINK: " line and Carsten replied very promptly
and extremly kindly.
I think that everybody in this list is really gentle,
helpful, constructive, handy, supportive.

Perhaps we (not so newbie users) shall
+ try to organise the various sorces of documentation
EmacsWiki, orgmode.org, worg ...
in a more clear way
+ fill the page of the tutorials at the worg site
On the other hand if somebzg ;) will write a tutorial
as clear, readable and enlightning, like you did with
column views [terrific!], I will suggest every
newbie to read it.
Cheers,
Giovanni
