Jeff Levitt updated DERBY-379:
------------------------------

    Attachment: derby379.diff

The attached patch makes the changes requested in this doc review.  I have 
created sample output on my own site:

HTML files:  http://derby.mylevita.com/getstart/
PDF:  http://derby.mylevita.com/getstart/getstartderby.pdf

A couple of items to note:

The patch affects EVERY dita file, but not the content for each file.  This is 
because I modified the year in the dita source file copyrights for each file 
from "2004" to "2005".  So while every file is listed in the patch, the only 
changes that will appear in the PDF and HTML files are those requested in this 
doc review.

I also made some changes to the trademarks page (The last section in the 
manual).  This page listed trademarks for other companies.  While the 
Microsoft, Sun, and Open Group trademarks appeared normal, the IBM tradmarks 
were in a table that was not appearing.  It didn't make sense to be placing the 
IBM trademarks in a table while the other companies were not, so I deleted the 
table and rewrote the IBM trademarks in a sentence just like the others.  
Please see:
http://derby.mylevita.com/getstart/rgstrademderby.html
(you can compare it to our existing page: 
http://incubator.apache.org/derby/docs/getstart/rgstrademderby.html
While the table currently shows up fine in that HTML link, it does not appear 
in the current PDF's)

This page appears the same in all 6 books, so I would also apply this change to 
the docs in each of their respective doc review patches.  I think this section 
needs to be carefully reviewed with the rest of the changes made in this patch, 
as this is legal information concerning multiple companies and should not be 
taken lightly.

> This issue tracks comments for the Getting Started with Derby manual. The 
> deadline for posting comments was Tuesday, June 28, noon Pacific time.
> PLEASE DO NOT POST ADDITIONAL COMMENTS TO THIS JIRA ISSUE.  If you have 
> additional comments, please open a JIRA issue for a fixin in a future 
> release, as there is not enough time to incorporate additional comments.
> Some guidelines to follow when posting comments to this issue are:
> - Try to make clear and concise comments about what you want changed whenever 
> possible.  Provide concrete comments that say "Please change <original> to 
> <modified>" instead of generic comments like "This section needs to be 
> rewritten."
> - If you're reviewing the HTML Files copy, include the URL for the page in 
> the review comment. Obtain the URL like this:
>     * highlight the topic in the left frame
>     * right click
>     * choose "Properties"
>     * copy and paste the address in the pop up box.
> - If you're reviewing the PDF copy, in the review comment:
>     * Include the page number for the PDF, and indicate whether the number is 
> the PDF sheet number or the printed page number.
>     * Include the title of the section that the problem occurs in. If it's in 
> a subsection, try to include the hierarchy of titles.
> - Please don't review the HTML Book copy -- it'll be time consuming to match 
> up that copy with the underlying DITA source.
