Hey There!
I thought I'd drop a few suggestions for some of the documentation you're working on.... :)

1.-Module Listing with Purpose: List the modules used and give a brief paragraph on why it's been included, and it's purpose.
2.-How to take advantage of the simple things: Give tutorials on how to make the most out of functions such as RSS.
3.-Solr Apache Search starter tutorial

I think you should add a few modules into your profile instillation
1.The Simplenews Module, or similar module; many newspaper websites send out emails regularly
2.A module that automates the archival process (I have yet to find one, though I've seen mention of such modules). I personally, am working out how I will move columns from the "current" state, to the archival page.

O.P. appears to be highly interested in new technology, and innovative news. I think that features such as a SMS service (user's can sign up to receive updates via sms), would be an amazing thing to include.

All in all, I can't wait to get rolling with this system. It appears to be quite amazing, and I do look forward to more documentation so I can understand how to use all of it's features.

Thanks
Devon

I agree that it is essencial

I agree that it is essencial to have a tutorial for:

1- first of all, instalation troubleshooting and resolution (for a newbie like me, it was very, very hard...)

2- The most important tutorial for me, it will be like "Make Your Own Newspaper". Like a tutorial with all the steps to build a newspaper for step 1 to managing a articles DB and even digital marketing tips. Like a "do-it-for-yourself".

Best regards,

Martino

Agreed

Martino,
I do agree!

The Digital Marketing tips could be created as a wiki page and we could all add to it, as well as some tips for content organization.
