Hi Ian, I prefer the "Simplified Tutorial for New Users” and it’s the one I tell my students to use, because they can do that on their laptops/workstations.
Cheers, Bruno

Hi,
The "Tutorial for New Users" linked from einsteintoolkit.org points to the Queen Bee tutorial (https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Tutorial_for_New_Users) on the wiki, which then states that it cannot be run at the moment: "NOTE: QueenBee 1 was decommissioned, and QueenBee 2 is not officially open yet. Stay tuned for updates for QueenBee 2."
There is also the "Simplified Tutorial for New Users" (https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Simplified_Tutorial_for_New_Users) but this is not linked from the main web page, so is not discoverable. This tutorial, apart from being "simplified", is also different in that it targets workstations (Debian, Ubuntu, Linux-Mint or Fedora) rather than Queen Bee. So the difference in name of the tutorial does not reflect the difference in content.
What is the status of the queen bee tutorial? Is it functional, and if not, will it ever be?
I think it would be good to have a single tutorial, which is simple, and which works anywhere. In cases where customisations for different systems are needed, this can be mentioned in the tutorial. This tutorial could then be the one linked from the ET website.
