I started to dream about what could do a Squeak Foundation. Here are the lists of thoughts. I reduced them to the most important ones as the resources will be limited.
- Basic tutorials for newcomers
If you like, I can do this. In this moment, I am expanding my tutorial (see http://objectsroot.com/squeak/squeak_tutorial_main.html)
One other thing to keep in mind is that there is a list of tutorials on the Swiki. See:
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/377
So, there are some tutorials out there, although some are better than others. And of course more tutorials would be helpful.
We should keep this list up to date, though. I already added Giorgi's tutorial to this list on the Swiki. Also, any tutorial on Squeak should mention which version of Squeak the tutorial works with.

Yup, but I think one of them (or one for each topic...) should be 'blessed' someway. It removes confusion for newbies.
I remember back when I wanted to learn TeX. There were a lot of tutorials, but there was one 'canonical' "gentle introduction to TeX". That's where you started, as a newbie - other tutorials, deepening some topics, came later.
