This has been a chronic problem and there is an interest in the user
community to work with David and the Hippo team to try to fix this.
There is a lot of documentation but it is really written for the
developers and requires way too much reading between the lines.
I have tried in the past to describe a set of documentation that my guys
could have used to get started.
Is there anyone else who would like to work on documentation? With
version 2.2 about to be released, it is not a bad time to take a run at
the documentation.

Totally frustrated!
Using Jetspeed2 ( Or at least trying to ) the documentation is extremely poor for the uninitiated and there seems to be a dearth of any hardcopy support.
Just getting installed and running on Ubuntu was enough to grey the little hair
I have left! Now that we have overcome that obstacle I cannot connect to my
Mysql database because the app is not aware of my mysql connector file and
there is no documentation to tell me how to tell the app to use a certain
connector.
Sure there is a little insert on updating the build.properties file but I am
not even close to the stage of doing builds, just trying to use the demo apps
to get the blasted thing going.
Its not surprising that big business runs a mile when faced with open source
stuff. The learning curve is simply made too expensive by poor low level
documentation. No description of the tree structure, poor prerequisites
requirements, interdependencies and too much to mention.
