I suppose Editor documents are considered client docs (in this 
case) and Developer documents are not. Right?
But does client docs include what I call Administrator 
documents? Like how to handle users, how to configure (by TS in 
the BE) Typo3 and how to make a tamplate?

My ideas is that there should be four main documents covering this:
- Typo3 Introduction
    http://www.infolagret.se/typowiki/index.php/Introduction
- Typo3 Editors Manual
    http://www.infolagret.se/typowiki/index.php/Editors_Manual
- Typo3 Editors Reference
    http://www.infolagret.se/typowiki/index.php/Editors_Reference
- Typo3 Getting Started Tutorial
Explanation I:
Follow the links for a more detailed idea of TOC for the 
documents. Gettings Started is the original one found at typo3.org.
Explanation II:
The first three documents are "the same" as the last one. The 
differens is that the first three are written as manuals and the 
last one written as a tutorial. Do you know what I mean?
Explanation III:
Typo3 Editors Reference should in reality be incorperated into 
Typo3 - in the Manual section or CSH. I think the other ones 
mainly should be kept outside Typo3. Why? Mostly because I like 
to read on paper and not on screen. And I don´t think I am alone...?
Explanation IV:
Add to this all the Editor parts of the different extension 
manuals and you get a good start for the client documentation. Or?
Opinions?
