Hi guys,<br>
<br>
Anticipating the Forge stampede following JavaOne, could somebody please brush up the blurb on the Forge home page? I think it&#39;s confusing and obfuscates<br>
the point. Specifically:<br>
<br>
1. The second paragraph is basically a rewording of the first?<br>
2. The second paragraph is basically the &#39;value proposition&#39; that most users will be interested in. It should come first?<br>
3. Even then, the second paragraph fails to convey the main &#39;value proposition&#39;: that is, that Forge allows rapid-application development using a command<br>
line tool.<br>
<br>
I think a lot of the features we tout &#39;front and centre&#39; are pretty secondary for new users. New users are unlikely to care much about IDE integration,<br>
plugins, or scripting. New users are more interested in doing what the video does (i.e. create a working app from the command line).<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Richard.<br>
