I'll testify to this. Since I posted my article, I have received a
couple of letters each day asking for me to forward anything I receive.
Unfortunately no one has responded saying that they have such a document.
My guess is that one doesn't exist. Let's face it. Up until now only
hackers have been using X. Hackers don't write tutorials, although I would
be very happy to be wrong about this.

This is my challenge: Prove me wrong. Show me a tutorial for X.
