A follow up to the Pd-list. This wasn't all too easy and it was a bit clumsy, but I gave my best as an internet stalker and was able to find information on who 'micckfuzz' is, where he teaches, his work email, and got a response. Long story short: I'm now able to edit the FLOSS Manuals book! But seriously, besides its tutorial (many of which I also have problems with, not to mention how outdated they are), I just think we need to forget about a second and parallel Manual on the wild and bring things to Pd's actual manual.
For example, we can talk properly about pd forks, the differences between them, we can teach people how to install some fork, we can create tutorials about externals, and put content that could make people easily choose some external for something specific that they want to do in their projects (this is something that would also make the experience with deken better, people could go to floss and search for some topic, and find which externals would need to use following some tutorial, and then download them from deken following instructions, this would be great for people arriving at pd!).
there is the whole meta-angle, true, but most important, a manual living on the www would be internet-searchengine-findable!
cheers,
