Looking more deeply at the GnuCash documentation, I noticed that some chapter are almost identical in both the Manual and the Tutorial and Concepts guide.

As an example the description of the Preferences with screenshots is almost identical in both documents: this is not needed at all. In my opinion this section, must be included only in the Help [1] and not in the concepts guide[2]. In the latter there could be some references to the preferences section in the help where needed in a tutorial. Same apply to the "tip of the day" section.

Also reading [1] and [2] it's clear that the first was intended as a guided tutorial while the second is a description of the interface, commands, assistants and options that GnuCash provides.

I'm sure that by browsing these documents some other sections are unnecessarily doubled.

I would like to open a bug to track this change (and the others that will be discovered of the same type) if you agree with it. Or is better to track the modifications in a wiki page?
I'm available to work on this issue.

Cristian
