I'm also pondering how/whether to list the tutorials on the front page.  
This page needs a little more content, but not too much content.

  http://learnperl.scratchcomputing.com/

One thought is to have a short paragraph about how the tutorials are 
organized and reduce the links to categories (e.g. beginner, 
intermediate, web, gui, and other specifics.)  Possibly having one 
tutorial link under each category.  As I picture it, the categories 
would land at anchors in /tutorials/index.html.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Eric
