Thanks Yuri - my hope is that this document *will* be the basis for such a tutorial.

I see no one has jumped in to edit the document… https://github.com/collective/collective.developermanual/blob/master/source/misc/plone5way.rst 

Maybe this is the wrong list to post it to, because most of you will consider yourselves developers, whereas the concerns being expressed at the removal of portal_skins and other TTW mechanisms will be held mostly by themers and integrators.  

On the other hand, if you see things in this list that themers and integrators are used to doing now and you're aware of "better" (newer) ways of doing those things, please chime in now or don't complain that themers and integrators should RTFM. We want this to become part of TFM. :)

This is a very nice and effective document. Why don't put tutorial 
online with the old way vs the new way?

A question: for sites with the old customizations, how the migration can 
be handled?
