The site looks great BTW... Great work Joe.

What I noticed is the development environment setup is wrong. Maybe an old
copy/paste, it shouldn’t involve ant anymore. So this would be more
correct on the wiki. I can agree to Shengs point that this is living
information and would be better served on the wiki. I can also agree that
linking to it from the site or having the site update periodically to
include the correct info is essential.
