[Bf-education] New Blender book?

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi all,

For 2005 the Blender Foundation intends to look at an update for the  
2.3 guide. Called "2.4 Reference" (or 2.5 if marketing demands it!).  
Can be limited to describing systematically what was added since 2.30 +  
give good reference.

We've got another idea for a book too, which can be produced parallel  
to it... that's is a book for people who want to learn Blender. An  
interesting approach to explore - here on this mailing list - is if we  
can make such a book a good companion for a first Official Certified  
Blender Course too! :)

----> working title: Blender Fundamentals

The chapters can be structured as a course as well, with educational  
targets per chapters, and a mixture of fun (tutorials) and assignments  
someone could work on him/herself.

I've asked Stefano if he's willing to be editor for such a book.  
However, structure & actual contents for it (incl thorough grammar  
check!) should be done based on the help by experienced educators here.

Who's in for a discussion and provide ideas? :)

Regards,

-Ton-
