I hate to spam this group as a beginner but I'm very confused with which way is 
best suited for developing the portal.
  
  First I installed the installer version, looked at the demo portal. I  have 
to say I really like it and the psml docs are very good, too.
  
  When trying to get the simples portlet to run the docs say that I have  to 
build the portal. Fine I've installed maven and build the maven  hello world 
project to see if maven works on my windows machine.
  
  What is the installer version good for if I can't even get the simplest  
portlet to run with it? Is it just for use as a demo? If that's the  case it 
should be indicated.
  
  If I can't use the installer version which is better the maven plugin or 
building from source?
  
  The building from source instructions are very tough for beginners  
especially when working on a windows machine (unfortunately mostly  beginners 
will probably do that).
  The page instructing how to build the maven plugin from eclipse is 404'ed.
  
  Don't get me wrong. I know that as a beginner everything looks more  
complicated than it really is. On almost every page it's mentioned that  the 
build process is very easy with maven - that makes me think how  complicated it 
would be withouth. I still didn't get any version of J2  -besides the 
installer-  to run.
  
  If you read this far you might take that extra minute to point me to the 
right direction?
