It's a great idea and an ambitious project.

I'd gladly contribute... while mint is an exellent distro... I believe it actually lacks most in silly little things, like documentation, tutorials and graphics... all the things that community even without professional IT knowledge can contribute to...

Its a very good Idea. Wikis help, but offline documentation is always better.

I agree!
But to do this we should find a form for this - offline wiki, database or?
The subjects and how deep we should dive into them etc.
I do have some spare time, but not much - you have to make a living too

I could organize the thing and contribute if others join in

I believe the most prudent course of action would be to work on the wiki and perfect it.... it's still very basic.... just take a look at the ubuntu stuff...

and than make an offline copy of it with every new release... or maybe even on a regular basis... make it available through the mintMenu as an entry under system.... and have it update automatically with the latest version via updater.... could be a real achievement...

I believe you're right and this way we don't have to work on both the wiki and the offline solution

I will gladly lend a helping hand in that area, when I am done with consolidating the mintArt webpage ... which should be within days now.
