Vig: What, a web-based editor like -say- a Wiki? ;) If we can get permission from tutorial authors, we could put those tutorials up on the wiki, which might be nice. Especially since tutorials tend to become lost after a few years. A website update, someone forgetting to renew their url and bam, tutorial gone.

I'm imagining when it's up the tutorials would be hosted on there properly and could all just follow a really basic template/guide to keep them in a similar fashion. If you have to search the site, I'd…
Becoming an editor on the wiki isn't too hard, just have to send a PM to Vito. Some people have expressed frustration at not getting access, but I haven't personally seen this. He's always been pretty quick in my experience. However if he doesn't get back to you after a couple days, let me know and I'll see what I can do…
