Hi Jacopo, All,
Looks great : simple! And the way you presented things look more like documentations of other reputed Apache TLP Projects (Geronimo,
ServiceMix, etc.)
I think we still have an effort to do in order to present things in Wiki like if OFBiz was an easy thing to play with (wich is false
but that's marketing, isn'it ? ;o)
We should try to put more effort in documentation : removing old stuffes, simplyfing, *ordering*. Look for instance at ServiceMix
http://servicemix.apache.org
It looks very easy to use, isn'it (after reading a couple of pages it's the
impression I got) ? And we know it's not!
What we need most is efforts coordination, to try to put something like these other projects in place (a sort of book with ordered,
easy to find, pages)
Our documentation looks terrible in comparaison http://docs.ofbiz.org or even
http://docs.ofbiz.org/pages/listpages-dirview.action?key=OFBENDUSER
How could we achieve it ? Not having the Confluence export available (is that
true?) should not be a reason.
We have already discussed about that, and if I recall correctly the last option was to use our own dog food. But is that possible ?
Shall we really able to achieve this in a reasonable time duration ?
Also Bruno is proposing something very interesting about help
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-2133
Thanks to have read me so far, waiting for your opinions :o)

PS : I intentionnaly don't post this in user ML, I don't expect much from users
at this stage...

Hi all,
you may be interested in this "experimental" new "Hello World!" tutorial, that makes use of the new "create-component" target to
setup the layout of a new component.
I really think that the OFBiz framework is becoming very powerful: writing an "Hello World!" application is really a matter of
writing "Hello World!" inside of a "label" element in a screen definition.
Cheers,
Jacopo
