It was disorganized and inaccurate enough I didn't bother trying to continue.  There was a big disconnect between what I was reading on the list about building/compiling vs the documentation.

Thanks for your input Martin and Walt.  As Jason says there is some documentation for this already but when I look for it, it seems disorganized and out of date.  Other than that do you have see any other problems with the existing documentation on building and configuring?  If not I will see if we can put some time into organizing it and making it up to date!

Thanks
Tom

Building.  You have to build it before you can configure it...

Configure. You have to configure it before you can debug it...

I'm partial to Windows/Apache, but both should be done...Windows first <G>.

(Resending with hopefully better formatting than last time)

Hi Developers,

We have some money that we would like to put toward documentation (http://producingoss.com/en/producingoss.html#documentation) in order to make the barrier for new developers lower; if you could only pick one or two from the following which would you pick?

1 Web Tier Component Architecture

2 Building MapGuide Server and Web Extensions on Linux

3 Building MapGuide Server and Web Extensions on Windows

4 Configure Web Extensions on Apache/Linux

5 Configure Web Extensions on Windows/IIS

6 Server and Web Tier Debugging HOWTO (Windows and Linux)

7 Running and maintaining Server and Web Tier Unit Tests

8 Branches for FDO and MapGuide

9 Document Render Service HTTP APIs

10 Other: please specify

This work is already in progress so please respond as soon as you can.

Thanks
Tom
