<p>Hi Scott,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>That's my second round of updating the FLOSS manual. At the
moment I've been adding some missing info (class methods mainly)
and also some basic synthesis tutorials that can be useful to get
familiar with ChucK.</p>
<p>But now I think a more structured approach is required. I think
it's time to do some proper formatting, to better present the info
already in there (ie the way class methods are listed varies from
chapter to chapter, an updated 'Installation' section is needed -
there are still pictures of Win XP!, and so on).</p>
<p>If you want, I would suggest you to join me on flossmanuals.net,
so that you can get the rights to edit the book.</p>
<p>Once you've got access, let's have a chat here on the mailing
list, so that everybody is up to date, and get organized about
what to do next.<br>
</p>
<p>Let me know if you have any question.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Mario<br>

<div class="">I agree. Case and point: where is info about HID
on the princeton site? Not there! (except examples). I think
it might be in the PDF, but not the web doc - at least not
anywhere I’ve been able to find. </div>

Next step would probably be a bit of text formatting.
Especially in the various 'reference' sections, there
are too many 'styles'.</div>
<div class="_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa">Just a quick note about the
FLOSS manual and ChucK documentation in general.<br
class="">
</div>
<div class="_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa">What I always found
difficult (especially at the begin of my adventure with
ChucK), was the fact the the documentation wasn't
centralized. There are plenty of places on the internet
where you can find bits and bops, but none is really
comprehensive (some are outdated, some just incomplete,
and so on).<br class="">
</div>
<div class="_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa">I believe ChucK is now
mature enough and needs a fully comprehensive (and
official) documentation. The FLOSS manual could help
with that (my personal opinion, open for discussions :)
).</div>
<div class="_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa">Wouldn't be easier if there
was THE place where all the documentation is?</div>
<div class="_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa">Looking forward to hearing
from you.</div>
<div class="_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa">In the meanwhile, give me a
shout if you wanna help with the FLOSS manual, there's
still plenty to do :P</div>
