[TYPO3] No tutorials?

Just out of curiosity - what's wrong with TSref as it is. (I mean its 
supposed to be a reference document, and not an instruction manual.)

I mean some parts of the explanations could be improved a bit, but 
format I think is fine. IMHO what is lacking is a small section of how 
to use the manual (not the information within) and how to cross 
reference between parts of it.

I would also like to see a new and improved version typoscript by 
example - one that should become a TSref2 type document that has lots of 
examples that correspond to TSref - but again this should not be in 
TSref. I don't want to have any more un-necessary things in TSref when 
I'm looking for things that I already understand and I just want to 
double check something.
