C# Tutorial

[Michael Mayer]

This is not an ad for the best c# tutorial on the internet! And not
from anybody world known.
I just wanted to start a thread (to possibly gather more interest)
based on a post Jon Skeet made earlier:

<quote from Jon Skeet - (e-mail address removed) >

I'm considering writing a C# tutorial.
Any comments (including "don't do it, there are plenty out there
already") are welcome - and if I *do* go ahead with it, I'd love it to
be as collaborative as possible... if you'd like to help, please let
me know.

Some topics of discussion:
- Should another one be made?
- What other ones are there (and strengths/weaknesses)?
- Content that should or should not be included?
- Target Audience?
newbie to programming or veterans of OOP moving to .NET and
needing to know its subtleties.
- Format / Hosting?
possibly making it a Wiki similar to http://jinx.swiki.net/12

- What other ones are there (and strengths/weaknesses)?

Seven tutorials from google's top 60 matches for "C# tutorial". If
anybody has used any of these and has comments, please post.

I specifically avoided any that were powerpoint based since those tend
to have a either a high-level overview or require an instructor.

Most started with an intro / hello world so I left that chapter out.
