It's a nice idea but I'm not sure it's going to be successful.
In the past (early unixhub) we've had a lot of long tutorial threads.
We've almost only had tutorial threads.
I've written my share of them.

These days when someone has a tutorial they post it on their personal blog.
I'm sure you have noticed this... Hek, z3bra you are part of those persons.

In all case, if I open the section I'll have to dig the forums for all the old tutorial threads and move them to that section.
Then again, why put them in a tutorial section instead of the section they were originally into?

If you meant a "request" section then it's another thing. Just open a thread in the community section so that people post their claims on it.
