Hmm... I might disagree with that one. For example, I don't know many newbie users who could single-handedly set-up and configure the Apache web server with Tomcat without encountering a few problems.
hmm...
not sure that that's a very good example.
AIUI interoperation with apache HTTPD was never really a primary goal of tomcat (and was left to secondary sub-projects). jserv is the ASF project which fills that gap. IIRC as a very green newbie, i found jserv really easy to install and integrate with apache HTTPD.
Also, some ASF projects have very skimpy documentation in places.
i'd go as far as saying most. but (once a project's been around long enough) there are usually enough books and articles to make up for this deficit. it interests me that academic licensed project seem to make up for lack of technical documentation by the quantity of published hard copy.
