The general structure of the howtos is basically as follow:

a page with service information (what it does, software project info, etc) and a table of contents;
each howto is divided into two sections*:
a. software usage,
b. clients

except those services that can only be accessed via web.

While this basic structure has remained the same since the beginning, for various reasons over time, the navigation or access of some tutorials has become a bit "complicated".

So the idea of this update is, in principle, to simplify access to the howtos and to achieve a better consistency in the way the information is presented to the users.

The first stage of the update is to review, organize and simplify the index pages so that, regardless of the service in question, one finds the information "layout" in the same way: -> how to use + -> clients.

The second part is the update of all the howtos, starting with those that have a significant time gap regarding to the latest versions running on the platform.
