This is exactly what I ment. I think the first 3 parts should contain manual relevant content. Getting first time users up to speed, What is it, What does it, what does it consists of etc etc. Just an idea: The tutorial or tutorials could be centralized on the mono site. Further more I really like the http://samples.gotdotnet.com/quickstart/ These are all small tutorial which are task focused. For example click on "Common Tasks" and you will see topics like: Make a GET request Read XML from a File etc check http://samples.gotdotnet.com/quickstart/howto/ And all the code samples are in MSDN style click C# to see C# code, click VB to get VB code etc. If something like that in the monkey guide layout would exist... woow :-)) > > Also it seems that we are rapidly expanding into a lot of tutorials > instead of just one?
