Addon tutorial

[Mike Orr]

I went through the addon tutorial which creates a Poll type. I made a
poll with two choices. When I view it, the poll page just has the poll
title, and each choice has a page with its title. But there's no poll
form I can find. So how do you actually take the poll and use the
poll?

I think it's just incomplete. If that's so, then we should obviously
put a note at the end of the second part.

I would put a note in the introduction saying that this is more a general example of a two-level structure (collection/record, blog/plage) than a practical poll. The kind of poll that I would normally use has all the questions together, so the separate question pages are superfluous and perhaps inefficient. Of course, other polls do have each question on a separate page, so this structure could be useful for that. A real poll may also need authentication to avoid duplicate votes or to allow people to change their votes. These could all be possible "homework problems" afterward.

The public view on the poll could pull all the questions together into
one. Which would be another way of fixing this. But I'm fine if we
find a better example. We should try and make it concrete though.
People will figure out that their collection/record data structure is
similar to the concrete example.

I've already opened a ticket for this: https://github.com/Kotti/Kotti/issues/215
