Hi there, I've updated the guide with a new section to cover the items suggested by Helmut (hel-o) in another thread.
It's still located at http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GettingStarted/ for now. Do you think it can be considered for inclusion in XE's default XAR as of today? If not, what's still needed? Please keep in mind that: 1. This is only the first version and it will improved later on based on user feedback 2. It needs to be kept short and concise to avoid duplicates with XWiki.org as much as possible 3. It will have to be translated in other languages, thus the shorter the better 4. I need to add more links to relevant pages of XWiki.org in the guide If it's approved, what's the workflow to include it in XE's default XAR ?
