I don't mind if it's harder for me but easier for authors. The
worst it may happen is that I'm flown with lots of submissions
of docs, and that's a very nice worst case. Obviously we should
impose a bit of standard to authors, otherwise they can write
long emails and say to us: structure it and relate it with your doc. 

Do you know what we could do ? 
We could scan potential authors. We could do a small poll.

1 - Would you like to help us to write doc for seul-edu ?
2 - If so, which would be your preferred ( even if you 
don't have time ) method of sending us piece of doc (long 
pieces/ short pieces, high structured/low,... ) ? in which
format ?

[snipped reasonable middle point ]

Yes, it's the better, let's author send us whatever they like 
in raw text. We (me included ) should  do further enhacements
of structure, layout,... . I like that solution too.
