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

    Attachment: HADOOP-1917_1_20071025.patch

Here is an early patch for some forrest-based guides to get some feedback. 

It introduces:
   *  {{quickstart.html}} - For first-time users including details on 
single-node setup etc.
   * {{setup.html}} - Help admins setup non-trivial hadoop clusters

Todo:
  * {{mapred-tutorial.html}} - Extensive tutorial on Map-Reduce, including a 
walk-through of some examples to help users understand and implement 
applications.
   * {{tuning.html}} - Documentation of various hdfs/mapred parameters.

> We've recently had a spate of questions on the users list regarding features 
> such as rack-awareness, the trash can etc. which are not clearly documented 
> from a user/admins perspective. There is some Javadoc present but most of the 
> "documentation" exists either in JIRA or in the default config files 
> themselves.
> We should generate top down configuration and use guides for map/reduce and 
> HDFS. These should probably be in forest and accessible from the project 
> website (Javadoc isn't always approachable to our non-programmer audience). 
> Committers should look for user documentation before accepting patches.
