Re: [amibroker] Users' Knowledge Base and myriad of support resources...

Hello,

I have added links to User KB to main index and support pages. I am sorry for not doing 
this earlier.

As to reorganization/cleanup - it is definitely true. Now we are in fact working on updating
video tutorials with current status quo and more work will follow.

Best regards,

> 
> (2) To share the following observation in the interests of helping

> 
> There is an incredible amount of useful information on Amibroker and 
> trading, but the organization of it is in a complete state of

> this occur.
> 
> My quick inventory of support resources includes:
> 
> - Users' Knowledge Base
> - Knowledge Base
> - Devlog
> - 4 yahoo groups w/ files (amibroker, amibroker-ts, amibroker-afl, & 
> amibroker-news)
> - User's guide
> - Official tutorials
> - Member submitted tutorials
> - Video tutorials
> - AFL Library
> - FAQ
> - Troubleshooting guide
> - Starters Guide
> - Old AmiBroker Tips Newsletters 
> - Additional documentation on the amibroker.com support page
> 
> This is a lot of resources for a new customer to get a handle on, and 
> a lot for an existing customer to monitor for new posts.
> 
> My recommendation:
> 
> Take a holistic view of all the support resources and reorganize them 
> into a cohesive assembly, delete outdated resources (E.g. amibroker-
> news), migrate useful resources into the user's guide (E.g 
> Troubleshooting guide and FAQ) or into the Knowledge Base (E.g. 
> Amibroker Tips newsletter), etc.
> 
> The relatively recent introduction of the Knowledge Bases and DevLog 
> goes a long way, but if feels like legacy documents and links need to 
> be cleaned up.
> 
> I'd certainly be happy to lend a helping hand wherever able.
> 
> Thanks for the ear.
