Thanks for the hand-holding!
I've managed to get SVN access and create-application.py building a custom starting point :-) . It took me a few minutes to realize that running the
C:\qooxdoo-0.8-sdk\tool\bin\create-application.py --name=custom --out=C:
command was failing due to there being spaces and other crud in the path to my qooxdoo-0.8-sdk folder.

Am looking forward to actually being able to play with some code! (tonight, after work's finished)

I've added some things to the http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/0.8/helloworld wiki page, so hopefully the next person to go through this on Windows won't have to ask for as much help from the list...

Cheers,

I downloaded it last night when I saw that there was a bunch of new documentation related to the 0.8 release. Installing and getting TortoiseSVN is simple, but I quickly lost my way at the following in the *Checking out from SVN* page:

    Subversion details

The following configuration settings are used to access the Subversion repository:

   *
      Hostname: |qooxdoo.svn.sourceforge.net|
   *
      Port: |443
      ...
      |

I guess each SVN client is going to require a different set up using these (and following) details.

Ideally, there should be a *SVN How To* for each operating system, assuming that the reader has no SVN experience -- this would pave the way for a lot more people, who find the qooxdoo approach interesting, to clear this hurdle and become hooked on your stuff.

You're right, our wiki page tries to cover a lot of ground... But it's usually simple. If you have TortoiseSVN installed, all that you should need to do is adding a local repository with a remote URL of https://qooxdoo.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/qooxdoo/trunk/qooxdoo - and you're all set to work with the qooxdoo trunk :).
