--------------------------------------------

Hello Taher,

Today I setup ofbiz demo data by the help of Gradle. And here is my general 
feedback. Overall things are really smooth and the document that you prepared 
readme.md is just awesome and very helpful. 

1) I really like the build output that ant build command generates. That is 
really helpful to see which files it is compiling etc, etc. In case of Gradle 
build I didn't see any such output. I think by doing some adjustment in 
Debugging Log Level we can enable it.

2) Other then this I liked the feature of stopping ofbiz by simply running 
"Ctrl+C" in case of Ant. For shutting down gradle I have to open new terminal 
and run shutdown command. I think we can do something here as well.

3) Then one more problem I faced, I forgot to create database so Gradle keep 
trying to acquire db connection, but in case of ant it releases the control to 
check db existence and exit and allow user to run other commands. In case of 
gradle you have to kill ofbiz.

In next few days I will explore other commands as well from readme.md and be 
back with more feedback.

Other then this everything is smooth. I installed ofbiz on my machine and 
loaded all the demo data, Ran some business process like created customer, 
order, completed order, created quote etc, etc. Everything is smooth.

Thanks so much Taher for all your great work. It is very impressive one!

Thanks,
Ashish
