----------------------------------

Excellent start on this, Laura! 

cgsintro.html looks just fine. Good catch on the title issue.

On rgsdocs17307.html -- just a few things:

I'm glad you caught the problem with the term "library. I don't think Derby is 
technically a product, which implies something that is sold; so maybe just 
"Derby documentation" would be a better title.

The new description of the Getting Started guide might be split into two or 
more sentences -- it's kind of a long list of topics. The Developer's Guide 
description might also be split into two sentences. The others are fine.

"Javadoc," believe it or not, is actually a Sun trademarked term that applies 
to the tool used to generate API documentation. Derby doc isn't Sun doc, so it 
doesn't really have to obey the trademark requirements, and "javadoc" is in 
extremely common use as a noun. But it might be nice to use the term "API 
documentation" or "API reference" instead of "javadoc."

> The activities in the Working with Derby guide should be merged into the 
> Getting Started Guide.
> Review Getting Started Guide for any reference info that should be either 
> "shared" with another guide
> or moved to another guide. For example, the SQL Syntax section in the Getting 
> Started Guide should 
> be moved to the Reference Manual.
