[dna-dev] Preparation for 0.5 release

I spent much of this weekend reorganizing the Getting Started document  
to better reflect the current state of the project as a JCR  
implementation, to add documentation for the new configuration  
mechanism, and to remove portions that are already (and better)  
covered by the Reference Guide.  (In fact, there was a fair amount of  
duplication between the two documents, so most of this has been  
removed.)  I still need to complete my editing of the Reference  
Guide.  Frankly, both documents needed more love than I had  
anticipated, mostly because of the new configuration mechanism.  We're  
getting close, but there are a number of small loose ends.

So I'd like to propose trying to release 0.5 this coming Wednesday  
(June 10).  This will give me enough time to wrap up my edits of the  
documents, plus it will give Brian the time he wants to finish the  
work on the RESTful web app and corresponding documentation, which  
will be a great addition.  In the meantime, I would appreciate some  
reviewing/editing of the updated Getting Started guide (and soon the  
updated Reference Guide, after you hear from me).  If you find any  
mistakes, go ahead and log bugs in JIRA.  And if you can fix it, go  
ahead and make the changes in the DocBook source within SVN.

Any objections or suggestions otherwise?

Best regards,

Randall
