I think that sometimes people do not see the effort a newbie has put into something, because putting yourself into their place is also difficult, and is not so urgent, i.e. their pain is not your pain. I paid to get documentation that turned out to be a work in progress and have never really gotten value for the money. Maybe that has now changed. The site sure looks better. I downloaded the 3.0 start kit and will see. But, I am not putting in more money until I make sure I am getting something back. The sad thing is that I am a very talented coder who would love to be involved with coding on JBoss. Well, not that sad. I need to get a grip here. ///;-) Thanks for taking the time, Andreas.
