John Casey updated MNG-1273:
----------------------------

    Description: 
Two issues:

1. The installation instructions for Windows make no mention of the need to set 
M2_HOME. But if you try to run "mvn --version" after following the 
instructions, you are prompted to set this environment variable.

2. At least on Windows 2K, M2_HOME will not work if it contains spaces. One 
workaround is to use the "short" 8.3 version of all directory names. (To see 
the short version of directory names, do "dir /A:D /X" in a DOS window.)
