------------------------------------
Hi Taher
I decided to have a go at testing this too as I didn't want to miss out on all
the fun! Gradle is new to me too so am getting used to the new syntax for
building, starting, testing and loading data. It looks to me like things are a
lot more controllable via the different options. Everything I've tried is
working well.
The README document is excellent and simplifies the whole process. (It just
goes to show what a difference documentation can make!). I think we're going to
have to steal some of it and use it for our updated getting started
documentation. :-)
