Great, great, great! Thanks a lot! IMHO, documentation like this one is 
definitely needed and something we're currently lacking. I've only skimmed 
it, but I'm going to read it more thoroughly later on, since it's stuff I 
need to read up on. 

That said, I'm a newbie on the subject, but I guess that makes me part of the 
targeted audience for the tutorial. I think you're explaining things very 
well. Of course, one can always look through code and find out what is going 
on when learning about things like these, but it's much better to also get 
the general idea of things before looking through the code. You're explaining 
both concepts and give examples, and do both very well. Good job!
