I like the style of this documentation that you reference. It is well 
written, with diagrams which make it easy for someone with minimal 
experience to follow.

A couple of suggestions that I have after a quick look at the docs are:

1. With the quickstart, we are looking to show one core example of the 
application in ~ 10 minutes. My first impression is that this chapter 
you reference is probably a bit too long. I'd suggest 2 rather than 4 
examples. Reason for keeping the docs concise is that we need to be 
aware that the docs are translated into over 10 languages, and the cost 
of maintenance becomes quite high.

2. Could you please make use of example data that is already installed 
on OSGeoLive rather than downloading from an external source. (You might 
want to use the Natural Earth example datasets in your standard 
documentation too).
