[Live-demo] Application Quick Start - RST or docbook?

[Jody Garnett]

Working on the following:
- http://svn.osgeo.org/geotools/trunk/docs/themes/geotools-tutorial/

Fairly similar to the normal OSGeo open office template however:
- bitstream verra cannot be counted on to be present on each platform - so the result really does not look similar
- need to work on the PDF generation side of the equation

So not perfect; but not bad enough to pull the plug either.
