I think this is a good idea, and I'm curious to see how it goes. I'll be watching, and as I complete some of my other writing duties I think this has a good chance of becoming one.

Something else that might be interesting: this comment and the idea it's a response to in the OP.

Thank you for your comment. I would be very happy to see you work on this too.

At the moment I am sadly swamped but this will pass in a week or two.

Edit: Now that I actually took the time to read the comment, I dump these first thoughts. Yes, most of the advice won't apply to any single person but the idea is to ahve anyone edit their own version. What I expect to see is some kind of tome with the most useful (widely applicable or extremely effective) stuff in it and explanations of it too, and a shorter version everyone or their group creates for themselves.
