>                 Key: MIFOS-5551
>                 URL: http://mifosforge.jira.com/browse/MIFOS-5551
>             Project: mifos
>          Issue Type: Dev Task
>          Components: Documentation
>            Reporter: Sarah Farrier
>
> I don't think this has been explicitly mentioned under any existing sub-tasks 
> for the Documentation Sprint - I wanted to add something regarding the 
> slightly inconsistent set-ups advised in the various developer guides, 
> depending on which O/S guide you're using.
> Three examples, off the top of my head:
> 1) Different install locations for Jetty ($HOME/jetty7/... vs. 
> c:/jetty7/7.3.1.v20110307/...)
> 2) Different example git clone locations (/head vs. /mifostrunk)
> 3) Helpful tips included or missing on developer set-up guides (the Ubuntu 
> guide missing the tip for 'mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true' to skip 
> tests, whilst this is nicely highlighted in Andrew's Windows screencasts).
> It may seem trivial at first, but I definitely think that consistency in demo 
> set-ups would help new developers out more (hopefully for fairly low effort). 
> Often, if example setups are as similar as possible between O/Ss, then new 
> developers can  extract existing knowledge and quickly see how to adapt it to 
> their current difficulty. A great example in my own case was knowing how to 
> set up environmental variables in Windows but not knowing how to do the same 
> task in Ubuntu before I started with Mifos.
