Hello guys,
I would like to improve the Monkeyguide tutorial. I think we need
to do a pass at cleaning up stale material, reviewing it for accuracy,
dropping infrequently used stuff, and move it into an appendix, and
incorporating new documents into it.
Here are some ideas:
* Introduction, layout: we should copy the text/contents from
the Mono web site here or from the various position e-mail
on the subject.
Use something like the graphic I have here:
http://primates.ximian.com/~miguel/tmp/map.png
To explain the relation of Mono to .NET and ECMA.
* Chapters 3, 4 and 5 should be merged into a single `Getting
Started' Chapter. There is too much redundant information
there.
* A `Developing with Mono' chapter should encompass chapters 6,
7, 8, 9 and 10. Some sections can be merged.
These should cover: programming languages and the using the
runtime
* Chapters 11 to 14 could be `The Basics of the Mono'
* Chapters 15 to 21 are `Programming with Mono'
* Chapter 22 can remain independent, as this is a world on its
own.
* Rename `Creating ASP.NET XXXX' to `ASP.NET XXX'
