Re: Installation documentation. Was: [VOTE] Release Apache Bloodhound 0.4 (incubating)

Based on the pervious discussion, I have already provided minor
changes in https://issues.apache.org/bloodhound/wiki/BloodhoundInstall

Regarding getting sources from tar.gz intead of svn, I suggest the
following changes in installation steps on BloodhoundInstall wiki:

I'm likely to give another look to revising these instructions but I can
use those changes as a basis for that.

Andrej: are you able to submit those changes for yourself?
