I just read it and you did a great job so far; I will have a closer look later again, sadly I am very busy right now :(. Just one suggestion: I think it would be nice to have a "Further Reading" Subsection at the end of each Section, containing links to the org manual pages, tutorials on this topic, FAQ Entries, screencasts, whatever. Tutorials are an excellent starting point, but they also great to look up what you recently learned and are tinkering with. Lets say I read the tutorial and tried the "Clocking". Then, suddenly, I realize I am not sure how I can really integrate this feature into a workflow. First thing I would do is return to my tutorial and reread the section. If the limited information there [its a tutorial, it is by definition limited], I would really appreciate a "Further Reading" Section, linking e.g. to Bernt Hansens excellent infos on his clock usage, like: * [[http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html#Clocking][Bernt Hansens extensive description Time Clocking: Usage, Customization, Workflow description.]] * [[http://orgmode.org/manual/Clocking-work-time.html#Clocking-work-time][The orgmode Clocking Section]] * [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/index.php#sec-3.3][Clock related Links on Worg]] etc. OTOH, this seems a bit redundant, given the fact that there is already org-tutorials on worg. It might be more convenient to only have a link to the proper sections on worg ... > Thanks for reading, Thanks for writing! Memnon Anon
