I'm in!

My thoughts:
- I ran into the same errors as reuben and Sean above with the exact same errors.
- I have never heard of ANT until today. I'm a client-side
developer. Just like Berardini. Server configuration is foreign to me.
Lead my people to the Red Sea of Server Configuration. Help us cross. I
think most AS 2.0/OOP developers understand and love working within the
framework, but have a hard time getting over the hurdle of setting up
the server and server files.
- A clean install from the bare-bones helped.
- I agree with hecubus that the release notes should state that .99
isn't compatible with .95. We're probably 5 projects into Cairngorm
.95, and I think we had anticipated a seamless upgrade.
- Item 3.2 in the docs should state that you have to copy over the flex-config file for your particular project and why.
- In some places, the docs show a path with '/' and sometimes without. I dragged my flex-config to the wrong folder (it was 1 up). The docs should be more consistent. For example:
- bin/cairngorm.swc to
WEBAPP_DIR/cairngormlogin/WEB-INF/flex/user_classes/
- bin/cairngorm-manifest.xml to
WEBAPP_DIR/cairngormlogin/WEB-INF/flex
- "these" is spelled "theses" on page 2: flex contains the source Flex files of the Cairngorm API, you only need theses if
you are recompiling the SWC

I noticed that line in the documentation, but we wouldn't know what
effect that would have
on our existing application if we proceeded with the instructions.
Without wanting to get into a heavy discussion about this, but I
couldn't find any caveat in
the install instructions or the release notes that this release was
intended to be a fresh
install, or that updates to the existing framework were not
supported. Just a suggestion
for the next set of install notes... :)
