No problem. It's not a bad idea to gently prod if initial messages go without
comment; this can be an active list sometimes. :-)

Sorry. I actually do most of my development on Win2K, but it was easier to
explain the commands in Unix than in DOS. ;-)

Here are the relevant DOS commands:
    cd tdk\dist\tdk
    move share/webmacro/templates share/webmacro/templates.sav
    md share\webmacro\templates
    xcopy /S ..\..\..\turbine\src\templates share\webmacro\templates
    newapp.bat [newapp]

(Note: Your mileage may vary; I've only verified these commands under NT.)

Because dist contains all the post-build output that eventually goes to create a
packaged distribution such as tdk-1.1.zip.

The steps are right, just backwards. :-)
