What are we looking for? A 60 minute introduction? Any thoughts on specific topics, or is the main thing just covering the basics of the API in vanilla situations? I have a great deal of interest in this area, and would love to hear from anyone that has thoughts, ideas, or comments. I would especially like to hear if there is a specific area or concept that confused folks when they were learning SQLite. SQLite tends to get used by a lot of people that have a stronger background in software development than in databases, so I would expect there to be some confusion about "database things" like table design and complex query commands. Solid introductory materials need to take that into account, but we need to gather some more information on precisely what that difference means. This is a bit off-topic for the mailing list, so please feel free to send stuff directly to the address below. -j -- Jay A.
