Are you looking for starters tutorials, or intermediate/advanced stuff? With starters I mean tweening a div (stuff like interface effects, eye- candy), and with intermediate I mean more "application like" coding with classes etc. I'm simplifying it here of course..!
Maybe we could start compiling a list of what's currently out there and have it at one place like a library of knowledge (stuff that's not on mootools.net) with keywords to make it searchable etc. David Walsh has lots of small tutorials/demos that gives you an idea how to use it yourself in a different situation and the same can be said for the sites Aaron, Keeto and Ryan have for example. It's those posts + checking out the source code of anything that looks interesting to learn it (eg. check out some Forge stuff that are of interest) Seeing other people doing similar things in a different way (or not) helps I think. Overall I think most devs agree that the docs are pretty solid, straightforward and not difficult to use. Please tell us (ask you colleague) what about the docs was more difficult to understand than jQuery's?
