Better sooner than later, I'd say. Why is it not in the thematic
tutorials yet? Is a review missing?

If the problem is about reviews, I suggest to use a similar procedure
for tutorials than for spkgs: There could be tutorials marked
"experimental", or maybe "preliminary" is a better word.

By a preliminary tutorial, I mean one that is not fully reviewed, but
one trusts that the author is expert enough to not write complete
nonsense, and thus makes it publicly available.

The table of contents at http://sagemath.org/doc/thematic_tutorials/index.html
would link to all tutorials, but the link to a preliminary tutorial
would be marked by a (red?) label. In that way, the users can already
benefit from the texts, but know that things may change over time.

Perhaps there could be finer labels, such as "draft". A tutorial would
be "preliminary" if it seems complete but potetially not final, and
"draft" if the author admits that it is incomplete but will not have
time to finish it in the near future.

In that way, all the tutorials from the sage.combinat branch could be
exposed to people *soon*.

Concerning the documents Nicolas pointed at:

Of course some of the subjects overlap with what I am about to write.
But my didactical approach is very different from these documents, to
the extent that there will be no overlap of the actual content of our
documents. Hence, I would not see a problem to eventually have
(preliminary) pointers in http://sagemath.org/doc/thematic_tutorials/index.html
to both the documents in the combinat branch and my to-be-finished
worksheet/text.

But let me finish things first...

Cheers,
Simon
