No. but in 3 whole months when I plan to present my course, it will  
be old.

And I don't intend to write more documentation for the current  
current release when
a lot of useful and powerful features are not documented for the soon  
to be current
release.

Writing documentation for the 4.7 release, will help both the new  
users getting into
Drupal (at the time when 4.7 has been released), and developers who  
are upgrading
from 4.6 to 4.7, to allow them to properly understand the new features.

Writing all this documentation for the 4.6 release has the effect of  
only providing the support to
people who decide to develop new sites on the previous stable release  
of the software,
because for some reason the latest stable release is not good enough  
for them.

Doing anything else would be tantamount to Redhat deciding to start  
putting together
a training course for redhat 8 two weeks before redhat 9 is supposed  
to be released.
