Hi Dan,

Looks like you've been very busy and hopefully got there now, well done!

I verified the RC3 release, strictly following the quickstart guide as a 
newcomer would.
I encountered 2 issues which I don't think invalidate the release, but I'll 
mention them here anyway:

1.  When I built the quickstart archetype, as per Quickstart Guide...
I needed to run mvn in a directory that doesn't have a pom.xml in it, as per 
your earlier suggestion, does this need documenting?
ie when I did:
mvn archetype:generate  \
     -D archetypeGroupId=org.apache.isis \
     -D archetypeArtifactId=quickstart-archetype \
     -D groupId=com.mycompany \
     -D artifactId=myapp
I got:
  Failed to validate POM for project com.agilejava.docbkx:docbkx-maven-plugin 
at Artifact [com.agilejava.docbkx:docbkx-maven-plugin:pom:2.0.8]
So I did  mkdir tmp; cd tmp   then repeated the above, all good.

2. When I ran the quickstart achetype
Quickstart Guide says cd quickstart, but actually need to cd examples/quickstart
Exploring this, the Quickstart Guide says ToDoItem.java is in the dom module. 
It is in examples/quickstart/dom/src/main/java/dom/todo/ToDoItem.java
which is pretty much obvious.

To be absolutely thorough one might review the documentation in light of the 
above, depending how much we want to leave developers to work it out / search 
the lists etc.


I also fixed the earlier Maven2 issue I had, see separate post. Again this 
seemed to be a config issue but I guess others may encounter it. I don't think 
this needs updates to the documentation, it references the email list which 
people can search.

Thanks again for all your hard work!

Best Regards
