I would like to suggest something that may be useful to RenderMan[tm] users/developers, which could be put on the CGCR RenderMan[tm] repository. Along with RIB or Shaders, and some description about how to use them, how about some of you out there writing one or more tutorials about how to use the more exotic or initially difficult things to do. Right now, some one says "Help me do [this]", and someone responds, which does provide a specific answer to a specific problem. Manybe something on the order of a file or files of FAQ's (frequently asked questions). I think many of the answers have been good, I am simply asking for more general, broader and deeper in scope.
