All the intro doc, including the diagram, is oriented to the first
time user who will likely not be familiar with:<br>
- web servers (including URLs, DNS, etc)<br>
- mapping (projections, coordinates, etc)<br>
- programming (Javascript, PHP, etc)<br>
but they want to learn.<br>
<br>
The other doc (reference , developer doc) will be for those with
experience...<br>

I agree it’s confusing on it’s own, but if there were more than
one server package configuration to look at it wouldn’t seem as
mysterious. I was planning ahead somewhat, with the eventual
idea that more of these simple diagrams might appear over time.<br>
<br>
Should a bare minimum approach to having a running GeoMOOSE be
taken then in the diagram. Also, what would the bare minimum
look like?<br>
<br>
Need APACHE (or ISS) obviously, and . .<br>
<br>
I can put more detail in into the diagram related to MS4W
specifically vs an option where Apache/PHP are installed
separately.<br>

> I think the wording about MS4W is out of place and maybe
even confusing. If you install MS4W then Apache and PHP aren't
optional -- they come with the package -- and if someone /just/
installed GeoMOOSE they aren't necessarily going to understand
that MS4w is optional in and of itself. They either (a) had the
wherewithal to install it on their platform of choice or (b)
installed it from MS4W. Either way putting the "optional
framework" stuff on there could cloud the user's impressions.<br>
