[FM Discuss] html manual

[adam hyde]

hi

would anyone like to help me make a manual on HTML?

i was thinking of an outline to support this course:
http://p2pu.org/webcraft/web-development-101/document/syllabus-web-development-101-0

i started with the docs they already have but i found that actually the
flow of the material is not very good...you can see the start here:
http://www.booki.cc/sowc/edit/#

(you need to log into booki first)

for example, there are topics introduced in week 2 that are covered in a
more basic way than the same topic in week 1. For example week 1 covers
'what is html' in a very brief way but gets quite techy while week 2
starts off with basic info on the structure of an html doc (which is
already covered in week 1)

i wrote to the course organiser to see if she would like us to help make
this a book. Looking forward to her answer but I am kind of inclined to
do it anyways since it would be a good book to have. But to do so I
think we almost have to start from scratch. 

I was also thinking it would be good to take this to Barcelona to print
(nov 3-5) at the drumbeat fest...

anyone keen to lose some days and nights and tag team this until its
done?
