Write a tutorial, modeled on the dweb primer, showing how to add a dataset to Data Together

Things to address in addition to the how:

  • how is this an example of stewarding Data Together?
  • what happens when I nominate a dataset?
  • can I harvest a dataset myself?
  • can my community run their own data together harvester and storage nodes?

Taken a first pass, you can see it in this branch: https://github.com/datatogether/learning/tree/gitbook-init

Had a brief demo with @b5 on Aug 14:

  • Prelim thoughts/notes:
    • "Add a Dataset" is this the right language?
      • "Add" versus "Nominate"? (we want mark that something is important? How to capture that?
    • "Archive a URL" -> this should be the file _
      • (side note: should work if you post a landing page to crawl, but lots of questions opened up about crawl params, storage constraints)
    • Paste into text box
    • Press "Archive"
  • Metadata Entry? What do we want then
    • Same page as upload vs. after?
    • Metadata about a group/persons engagement with that data, versus
    • Metadata about the dataset itself

FYI I'm blocked by issues I've laid out in datatogether/webapp#45

Oops, I don't think this should be closed yet as we still haven't got a draft out :/
