Definitely.  It's absolutely in the plans for KHelpcenter to collect up a lot 
of this kind of very task oriented HOWTO information. If you have CVS checked 
out, you might like to have a look at kdebase/khelpcenter/DESIGN for the 'big 
picture' plan.    You'll see that the howto's on your site (I assume, my 
dutch is nonexistent!) are precisely the thing we had in mind to add.

So, if you write them in English, or translate them for me, I'll help you take 
care of proofreading, mark them up for you if you like, and find them a home 
in CVS.  The plan for now is to take the current 'Tutorials' folder and make 
it a 'How To...' folder instead, but there are other GUI ideas under 
discussion for how to deal with them too.
