Hi Harshana,

As someone who's already familiar with Carbon Studio, I don't find any
issues. I know where to start and where to go next and what to do. You too
know that, and that is why you get back to me with do this and do that
responses.

But, for a new user, the download page is not @ all informative, and he/she
will be lost. We have a pattern in all Carbon based products, where you can
first download the binary and then read the INSTALL.txt and the README.txt
and start using the product, which CS does not follow. To emphasize this
point, I mentioned, "as a user already using ESB and DSS".

I believe that we need a more user friendly solution to help people get
started.

Thanks,
Senaka.
