Re: [Sc-devel] documentation issues for 3.2

[Andrea Valle <valle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think that from a newbie perspective scheduling is missing in action.

You open SC and you want to see how to put up a sort of sequencer. Then?

On Help.html there's Stream, but, really, it's not a tutorial. We need a scheduling tutorial, to grasp the concept. From there, Streams help can be linked.

I would probably update the Italian toot in the next couple of months. In that case I can provide some raw material (with some eyecandies...)

Hi all,

  I have started looking through the tutorials and realize that many  

are out of date in major and minor ways.

For example, the server windows look entirely different now and need  

to be updated where they are embedded.

The Pbind doc uses Pdef:remove which does not exist, etc...

This is an important issue for the DVD as it will have a major impact  

on the initial experience for new users which

will directly affect overall acceptance of SC3 and interest in the book.

Is there some way to freeze everything but the Help directory and  

have a one or two week documentation update

binge?   Perhaps create a separate 3.2 documentation project and then  

fold it back into the 3.2 release later?
