The documentation team is working hard on finalizing the 3.9 doc branch. It will hopefully be released within a couple of weeks. This was a bit more work than originally expected. We started with around 60 issues, which quickly spawned several new tasks. Anyway, we're on the case and we're doing our best, stay tuned... :)
Regarding the "Building and eZ publish site" tutorial. Because of other (more important) tasks and lack of time/resources, this tutorial haven't received much attention lately. It is kinda outdated. However, it should still provide a good foundation for beginners (you'll need to poke around a bit more instead of just following the step-by-step guides). I hope we'll be able to do a complete update during the remaining months of this year. That's all I can say for now.
Although it's outdated the "Building an eZ publish site" document is still a great way to get an idea of what eZpublish is capable of.
The reference documentation is useful for finding the answers to questions - but not much use until you know the questions to ask ;)
What might be handy, if a re-write is too big a task, would be an appendix detailing the parts which are now deprecated (I'm thinking of the 'section' code).
I don't mean to derail this topic, but where can I find the "Building an eZ publish site" document? I searched for it but couldn't find any specific document with that title. I'm trying to soak up as much information as I can about ez and thought it would be important to gloss over that document. Thanks.
