stack commented on HBASE-1904:
------------------------------

This article is excellent.

Its standalone.  Works apart from the 'Getting Started' context. I'm thinking 
that I should make it into an xdocs article and will check it into src/docs.  I 
can do the convertion.

Wim, can you please take a look at src/java/overview.html.  See how it already 
makes reference to making hbase work on windows?  Can you edit that so it 
points to your article instead and roll a new patch with cygwin.html and these 
changes included?

Thanks for the good stuff.

> Installing HBase on Windows using Cywin is more than just unpacking the 
> distributables and running the shell scripts. Sure, Windows is for testing 
> and development, only, but the complexity might scare new comers. A proper 
> how-to guide should help a lot.
