Hey Mike,

glad you like my idea, here a first draft of a list which imho would be
didactical sense:

- What is Sling
- Getting and building Sling
- Architecture
- Resources
- Setting up an Sling-Project with Eclipse [NEW - [1]]
- Sling-Taglib (JSP) [NEW - especially sling:include needs good
documentation]
- Manipulating Content/SlingPostServlet (servlets/post)
/** Note: here I think the user knows enogh to get in touch with the JAVA
API **/
- Request Parameters
- How to create a new bundles and services for Sling
- Authentication
- Eventing and Jobs

I chose the JSP approach since most java developers are familiar with it.
All further topics seam to be to specialized or detailed to get started
with. I might have forgotten something but more important is if this list is
ok for a sling rookie. But as always the best way to check some
documentation is to contact a good old friend havin nothing done with Sling
yet - let him get in touch with sling in exact this order and allow him to
ask questions, we should get pretty soon get a feeling if the order is not
the best or if a topic isn't handled well for a rookie (may be not enogh or
to complex).

Hope this helps a bit.

Best regards,
Dominik

[1] - not building sling from source and more information then just "copy
from example project" but just raw contentloader approach with the
information how to manipulate nodes through json or xml files -
bundles/services should be handled later
