[chandler-users] User guide

[Mimi Yin]

Hi Mike,

We are continuously working on improving our documentation so  
feedback is very helpful. May I ask what kind of instruction you are  
looking for?

We have a User Stories Gallery that showcase some of the ways people  
have made use of Chandler in the last 6 months. Some are more  
specific than others. Here is a list of the ones that describe  
specific workflows and usage scenarios:
- http://blog.chandlerproject.org/2008/05/22/benjamin-wilreker- 
manages-contacts-in-chandler/
- http://blog.chandlerproject.org/2008/05/29/the-common-datatrust- 
foundation-manages-contacts-in-chandler/
- http://blog.chandlerproject.org/2008/05/30/chris-janssen-and-his- 
team-manage-tasks-in-the-triage-list-and-on-the-calendar/
- http://blog.chandlerproject.org/2008/06/18/pulling-together-agendas- 
and-logging-meeting-notes-together-in-chandler/
- http://blog.chandlerproject.org/2008/05/16/andre-tries-out-the-new- 
independent-detail-view/
- http://blog.chandlerproject.org/2008/04/07/how-i-use-chandler- 
shared-packing-list/

There is also the Get Started Guide and the new Troubleshooting page.

There are also demos on the Product Tour.

Are you looking for ideas on how best to set up your collections?  
Sort of a tutorial for how to set up a process in Chandler? We hope  
to get some out over the coming weeks/months. The best would be to  
base it on how people are actually using Chandler. I imagine we will  
end up with a variety of different workflow styles.

If you could give us some more specifics on what you're looking for,  
it will help us make the tutorials more relevant to new users.

Thanks!
Mimi
