This is basically explained in this page:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/Apache+OFBiz+Getting+Started
If I could have all new users read one page it would be that one, and
of course it links to various other important introductory resources.

What about adding few lines (maximum of 2 lines) about each heading
on the page mentioned above?
The details on each heading will help new user to pick the OFBiz of
his / her own choice.
Headings are:
-- Nightly Trunk Builds
-- Archived Trunk Builds
-- Nightly Release 9.04 Builds
-- Nightly Release 4.0 Builds
Suppose I imagine that 4 is lucky number for me. So I can opt 4.0
branch to use for my work.
It may happen that new user don't know the reason why 9.04 has been
introduced. (easy to understand for technical guy but difficult for
non-technical person)
IMO few details or recommendations should be provided on this page.
In the last Apachecon-08 at New Orleans we had a BOF session and in
that session we discussed the importance of using trunk as compare
to release branches. (Thanks David for explaining the things at
Apachecon-08 :) )
Now I understand and encourage the use of "trunk" and think to have
few details about each topic on the above mentioned page so new user
can decide which one is good way to go with.
Thoughts ?
