Hey all,

I'm starting a project to host a really nice, user-friendly, easy to
use Git learning materials website for Git newbies to get new users
started and make it as easy to learn as possible.  I'll be redoing or
editing some of my screencasts from gitcasts.com and starting an open
book at github and putting it all in one place for new users to get
started easily.  Anyone will be free to submit changes, additions,
etc.

If anyone has any tips on how they think git should be taught, issues
they are asked a lot, problems newbies tend to have, something they
wish there were a screencast for or was better documented, etc -
please do contact me so I can incorporate it.  I would contribute to
git itself, but my C-foo is seriously wanting, so if by teaching
people properly I can free up some time for you guys, I would love to
do so.

Please let me know if you have any pointers or think anything should
really be better documented for end-users.  I plan to do a lot of
graphics, screencasts and whatever else makes it as simple as
possible.

Thanks, and thanks again for git.

Scott Chacon
