I’ve started on what I’m calling Chapter 1 - Setup.  I decided to refer absolute beginners to an appendix for full install instructions and only detail installation for the assemblies and dlls that are required for the project. So far I have 4 pages! Yes, I know it’s a very small start, but it is a start. Oh, and I’ve also done the Windows install of VSE so I have a ton of screen shots to edit for that part of the appendix.

Maybe I should talk a little bit more about what I plan on doing for the book.
