What type of Omega documentation do you want the most?

Some " best practices" guides for using the stylesheets provided with Omega and how they relate to the Mobile First approach would be most helpful.

Maybe even a very simple companion site with a set of Mobile First styles in place and downloads for the related Omega sub-theme CSS files for users to examine and learn from.

I would be willing to work on a sample example like this if the idea is deemed worth pursuing.

Generally I find videos for technical topics, especially ones requiring lots of configuration are not all that useful, since it's difficult to refer back to specific topics. That said, the intro video for Omega is a great introduction. I think where documentation would help the most is details of creating subthemes and modifying the specific items (e.g. zones and regions, creating new media queries, that sort of thing). The existing videos already show off those features nicely, now we just need the docs to learn how to tweak them.

That's my 2 cents anyway.

Update: I thought about this a bit more last night, and here's an idea for a starting point for an outline:

• Intro: base Omega out of the box - regions and zones
• Subtheming: deriving your own theme from the base Omega
• Delta: using context to drive different layouts
• Responsive: how and where to put your CSS for each of the responsive layouts (narrow, normal, wide)
• Best Practices and advanced techniques: how to separate your CSS, image styles, views, deltas, context, anything else that might have some dependencies on responsive layouts
  • some ideas:
    • how do I use a different image style in the normal layout (e.g. 220px wide) and the narrow (e.g. 100px wide)
    • responsive columns: 4 column grid in normal, 3 column in narrow and 4 column in wide using views and a custom template (I'm still working this one out)

The trend for video screen casts for technical documentation is a horrible horrible trend.

I find text documentation with screen shots to be the most useful for the primary reason that it is easy to update / correct. Videos must be remade everytime something changes, and that just does not happen.
