Excellent idea !

And I think syncing with eZ engineering team, both on the dev and doc side might be inteesting.

Joining forces for a better coverage of this important strength of eZ Publish would be brillant !

Oh please! I urgently need to develop a custom datatype and have realised what pain this can be. You are absolutely right about the lack of suitable tutorials. I'm really looking forward to reading your tutorial Jerome.

Sure, I'll sync with eZ engineering :). Actually I already have a few questions about a few methods ;-).

@Charles : I'll do my best to write this tutorial ASAP. If you need a kickstart, the best would be to read the existing tutorial mentioned in my post, and to make some comparison with simple datatypes from the kernel such as ezstring (kernel/classes/datatypes/ezstring/ezstringtype.php)
