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. -- Æ
