Basically, we maintain a list of links to outside documentation, as well as to books. Somebody has requested a link to their paid tutorial course. How should we handle it? If the resource is valuable, then it may make sense to link to it, even if it costs money. We already do this with book links, and my policy has been to link any relevant book that is requested (I don't read them for quality, so I have no opinions). Should we do the same for tutorial content like this? -Peff
