I'm glad you like the idea. From my time teaching people to ice skate, 
as an expert I often found that intermediates were better teachers in 
some ways as I'd assume too much. I think Xaraya is a similar case. You 
are all experts and don't realise just how dumb us newbies really are!  ;-)

I've heard of your legend on the PostNuke forums and would be glad to 
assist you in writing documentation for me ;-)

But seriously speaking. Several years ago I leart 5,000+ years of 
chinese history (of which I was previously ignorant) in three days by 
gaining a skeletal understanding of events from first reading the 
"cartoon history of the universe" history book. Once I had a broad 
understanding of what things went where, I was able to quickly learn the 
details from real history books in at least five times the pace. We 
build upon what we already know. And I currently know bugger all about 
how Xaraya works!

I'm really looking forward to an opportunity to help :-)
(almost as much as I'm looking forward to knowing how to use Xaraya!)
