[drupal-docs] Good stuff: make the user test out the module...

I installed the workflow module once just to see how it does stuff.  
It's one of those I-don't-know-what-I'm-looking-at type modules, a 
problem that is solved very very cleverly by adding a getting started 
section, and putting the user through the paces of getting used to how 
the module works.  Very fabulous, thought it was amazing when I first 
saw it.

I was going to paste it in, but it's pretty long.  You can see it here:
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/modules/workflow/README.txt?rev=1.1.2.1&view=markup

I am up too late...  But I do want to say that actually have someone do 
it for themselves is a good way of getting them to really learn it, as 
opposed to just telling them about it.  What was it they used to say in 
school?  Kinetic learning.  :)

PS: I did my first cron job, yay!  It seemed a lot harder than it 
actually was.  ^.^;;  I assume the completely blank white page I got at 
cron.php was proper behavior...  I wasn't sure so I ran a search, which 
worked for the first time.  ^.^
