Plugins are good :)
Links to your work and anyone else's are certainly to be included as the 
page then becomes a 'one stop shop' on a subject then.
I wrote this simply because despite plugins existing, people were still 
asking.

It does ?

Ah.. like my contact form then.... I'll add that info in.

I would very much like to have some work done on 1.3's file structure 
before it goes live. While existing 1.2 users have something to draw on 
- and a tutorial page could point to 1.2 experience, new 1.3 users will 
not, and no doubt the usual "We had this in xxx" will surface, so some 
prior work would / will / shall (note the optimism :) ) be useful.

I'll change the static page again.
