Avalon Beginner's Guide

[J Aaron Farr <ja...@yahoo.com>]

Greetings!

I've finally started to put an Avalon new users guide together.  Beyond
a simple introduction to Avalon, it will mostly focus on a
Fortress-based tutorial.  The beginnings can be found at:

http://www.jadetower.org/spire/projects/apache/avalon/

I'll be putting up the forrest source soon.  I'll also be adding a lot
to it this weekend (I hope).  I'd love _any_ feedback.

Also, I had once upon a time mentioned ideas about an Avalon 'compliant'
DAO Manager.  Well, the code's not there yet, but the sourceforge
project is up at http://jingdao.sourceforge.net .  I'll be submitting
code to that project this weekend as well.

Thanks!

The introductory chapters are fine, but the "meat" ain't there - I would 
be interested to see the Fortress tutorial going up, even if it is not 
finished 100%.

looks promising. Well-written, understandable. Only thing missing is 
more of the same :D

I would have a look at the merlin tutorials Steve's been writing for 
inspiration or cloning as well.

There is a bunch of tutorial content on Merlin at the following link 
that you may find useful.  It mainly about using Merlin with classic 
Avalon components.

  http://avalon.apache.org/sandbox/merlin/starting/hello/

Some more advanced stuff is available under:

  http://avalon.apache.org/sandbox/merlin/starting/advanced/

Cheers, Steve.
