Frank,

The entire Guide was originally written as a step-by-step "cookbook" with sections in each chapter "putting it all together." Those sections have slowly disappeared over time, in large part because they were overly specific (an existing example is the section that uses a Degas painting as an example of capital gains?!?), or used informal language that obscured the underlying concepts they were trying to explain. Putting case studies on the wiki is far and away a better solution than re-cluttering the Guide with information that only a few will need.

Neither you nor your draft told us explicitly that it is an Aussi thing. ;-)


The wiki is fine but has poor organisation.
I created Category:AU‎ and Category:GST/VAT on behalf of you and
populated the later after a simple search.
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Category:GST/VAT gives you an impression.

Hence my original query above.

Contrast: https://beancount.github.io/docs/
We do not have the human resources to maintain another set of docs.

But I would like to use "Cookbook & Examples" as title of a new part of
the Guide.
