Ok. So to summarize, the question is, "do we want to sell a short
commercially produced tutorial from a link next to the download button
on our main page?" I guess this could be broken into two questions 1) do
we want to sell this tutorial and 2) do we want to publicize it in such
a prominent location?
What are the likely issues going to be?
- is it hard to make a decision without knowledge of the quality of the
tutorial?
- how will this affect our volunteer documentation efforts? Are they
getting such prime real estate?
- standard questions about need for and use of money.
- what precedent is this setting, ie how will we respond (possibly
unlikely) requests from other publishers or documentation sources?
Let's hear some opinions folks.
