Forging forward with the new material - any updates?

Hi all!

I have made a bit of progress with some new CSS material over the last week, but I've not seen much activity in other areas, although Alexander has put up his awesome WEST (web education supplementary toolkit) idea at http://www.w3.org/community/webed/wiki/WEST.

I am hoping that will pave the way forward for the creation of a lot of useful outreach resources - please go have a look and feedback on it!

Could I also ask that anyone else who has been working on materials give us an update, so we can see what has been achieved so far? I've not seen anything much coming up on the RSS feed, but I just thought I'd check. This is a useful tip, BTW - to see what updates are made on the site, subscribe to the RSS feed on the main page - http://www.w3.org/community/webed/wiki/Main_Page

Now, I want to ask for your opinions on how to move this forward most effectively. I don't want to be pushy, as I really appreciate most of you are doing this on a voluntary basis, and that your time is really precious. But what would make it easier to contribute?

Should I micro manage a bit more, and give you very specific tasks to do (eg person a, write this article, person b, proofread this), with deadlines?

I'll start sending a few more mails out about this to individual groups, in a minute.
