[Qgis-community-team] QGIS Training Manual 2.0

Sounds good to me. Multiple tags are a good idea, because one might
work in a chapter doing different tasks: first, reviewing an updating
the text, then working on the screenshots, then extending  the
example...

With that and commenting on github issue, we should be able to
coordinate the work.

Let me know if you want me to start filling issues already

Cheers
