[documentation] [Documentation feature] Create First Steps Handbook

[Web Weaver]

Hi, I joined the documentation group because I myself have found it almost
impossible to find what I need. I believe that if you think something is
broken you better be willing to help fix it before you complain. So here I
am :o)

I have 1 question, who currently, or what type of user, currently can use
the documentation and find what they are looking for?

I can say that someone who is unknowledgeable of programming, or using a CMS
finds it difficult. I would describe myself as a self taught computer user
who has built static web sites and knows a bit of both html & css,
understands the basic concept of a database, can learn and understand
concepts if presented in a very simple fashion to build on, but doesn't know
any of the terms that are being presented.

When someone is beginning to learn the system, creating the vocabulary that
will be used throughout the rest of the documentation is very important, and
I feel that is where there is a huge lack. It took me two hours to figure
out that Taxonomy was a parent term for Categories, Vocabulary, Terms, &
Tags, and not a specific part of that path.

I am happy to help in any way I can, and have actually created a Drupal
group for putting together some Beginner Documentation. Let me know what I
can do.
