I share your opinions on the reference manual - learning interviews seems to be 
a matter of learning from example, browsing thru the source code, etc.  I would
assume that the lack of appropriate documentation for new users is a big obstacle
to the further proliferation of Interviews.

In addition to the above documentation question, does anyone know of any 
training courses available on Interviews?  (I have found courses on X windows, but
none on Interviews)
