        Okay, let's say someone told you about xwiki to build your website,
giving you some examples like Curriki. You are interested and want to
see if it can fits your needs. You'll want to know how you can install
the product and adapt it to your needs, that may be wide. 

        So e.g. I want to know how to make a site like Curriki. How should I
proceed? And first, in which section should I have a look? There's
something missing here, maybe just a few words that say to me 'hey guy,
if you want to build a website upon XWiki, it's that way!'

        Or more basically, let's say that you have installed a distribution of
XWiki Entreprise for you to test and let's even suppose that you have
clearly understood the difference between 'XWiki' and 'XWiki
Enterprise' (which is not always very clear for a newcomer if he heard
about XWiki as a something like 'MediaWiki' power 2). 

        Now you just want to build a new skin from scratch. Hmm... where should
you have a look into? XWiki Entreprise or XWiki Platform? If you feel
logical, providing you've downloaded and you're using XWiki Entreprise,
you'll have a look into the documentation for XWiki Entreprise. Well...
wrong guess, it's in XWiki Platform.

        Something like a diagram (or a table, at least), showing in a glance 
which functionality is part of which product.
