I missed the re-start of this thread. Anyway, in case you didn't care to
search the archives, I'd like to re-post a list of a number of
introductions, most of which have been available for a while (read: long
before Eric Raymond started whining).

No, it's not unnecessary. I have a master in Computer science but
for several days now, I'm trying to make my way throught the
jungle of SGML stuff. This mail thread showed me that it's not me
who is completely stupid, but other people have problems with
the documentation, too. Thanks, Eric Raymond.
Once you figured out how it works, could you please publish a good
tutorial?
Yours,
Volker Paul
