or something like that?  Anyone have any changes, suggestions?  How should the
main /reference/ page be laid out??  I would really appreciate some input to
help me decide how to organize this section.

For right now, keep the layout basically how it is.  I'd add posting dates
for each of the items, and put the newest items at the top.  If an item
gets significantly updated, move it to the top.

You might also add icons (either textual or graphic) for each item to
provide more information.  One icon could mark updates, another could be
for tutorials (a graduate's mortarboard?), how-to's (nuts and bolts?),
references (page & magnifying glass?), FAQs, etc.

A couple things which I'll have to work out later: I was at a Legofest the other
day and asked the people there this question about how to organize it.  We came
to the conclusions that they should be organized by experience level - beginning
tutorials, intermediate tutorials, advanced tips, etc, specs being separate.  I
like this idea and have to work that out when I get more time.  This week will
be tight for me.

Seems like "experience level" tends to mix in with "reference type" pretty
well.  If you do a good breakdown on the "reference type", you don't really
need "experience level".

But having a I, II, III type level indicator wouldn't be a bad thing.
