Perhaps the instructions could be better, but with the binary installed
version from the installer you can customize most things you will need to
customize.  You can:

-Create and Customize themes/skins.
-Customize navigations and layouts.
-Add/Remove/Change pages.
-Deploy new portlet applications and add them to whatever pages.

What is less trivial is configuring J2 to use a different database, change
the URI of the portal or integrate with an existing authentication
authority.   Although these can be done after the fact, most J2 users that
will be doing these kinds of things have a deeper understanding of J2 and
find it easier to create a custom build of a portal from the get-go (either
from source or using the maven plugin).
