-Documentation
-===================
- 
- This README serves as five minute overview of Geronimo, but better
- documentation can be found here:
- 
-   -  http://geronimo.apache.org/documentation.html
-
-
-___________________
-Release Notes
-===================
-
- Please read the RELEASE_NOTES for a complete list of things that are
- not yet functional.  We wrote those up to save you time trying to get
- things to work we know are not implemented.
-
- 
-___________________
-Installation
-===================
-
- If you've downloaded and unpacked a binary distribution of Geronimo,
- then you are finished with installation.  You can also use the
- installer JAR to customize things like network ports and the
- administrative login during installation.
-
- 
-___________________
-Geronimo Home
-===================
- 
- The GERONIMO_HOME directory, is the directory where the Geronimo
- binary was unpacked or the it is the 'target' directory created by
- Maven from a source distribution.
- 
- If you unpacked the binary into the directory C:\geronimo,
- for example, than this directory is your GERONIMO_HOME directory.
- The GERONIMO_HOME directory is referred to in various parts of the
- documentation, so it's good to remember where it is.
-
-
-___________________
-Starting
-===================
-
- The main server class is also packed in an executable jar,
- bin/server.jar, and can be ran in a way similar to the deploy tool.
-
-   C:\geronimo> java -jar bin\server.jar
-
- Once the server has started, you can access the welcome page by
- pointing your browser to:
-
-   http://localhost:8080/
-   
- You can also visit the web management console at:
- 
-   http://localhost:8080/console/
-   
- To access the console, use the administrative account, which is
- username "system" and password "manager" by default.
-   
-
-___________________
-Deploying
-===================
-
- The Geronimo deployment tool is packaged in the executable jar
- bin/deployer.jar under the GERONIMO_HOME and can be executed like
- this (assuming the server is already running):
-
-   C:\geronimo> java -jar bin\deployer.jar deploy myDataSource.rar
-   C:\geronimo> java -jar bin\deployer.jar deploy myEJB.jar
-   C:\geronimo> java -jar bin\deployer.jar deploy myWebapp.war
-   C:\geronimo> java -jar bin\deployer.jar deploy myApp.ear
-
- Notice that the deployer.jar is capable of handling a number of
- different archive types; rar, war, ejb jar, and EAR.
-
- The deployer will prompt you for a username and password; the
- default administrative account has username "system" and password
- "manager".
-

-Support
-===================
- 
- Any problems with this release can be reported to the Geronimo
- mailing list or Jira issue tracker.
+To perform a clean bootstrap simply run:
 
- Mailing list archive:
- http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/geronimo-user/
+    ./bootstrap
 
- Mailing list subscription:
- user-subscribe@geronimo.apache.org
+To leave the local repository repository untouched then run:
+
+    ./build
+
+Both will run a multi-stage build.  When making changes it is recommended to
+run `bootstrap` to ensure that no locally installed artifacts are interfearing
+with a clean build.
