Few online documentation issues
Hi Dev team.
I wanted to start contributing to CouchDB with few of the small, easy to address issues. While searching for pointers, I came across few documentation typos which I thought worth sharing with you so that they can be fixed when we get time.
A. on http://couchdb.apache.org/developer-preview/2.0/
we have two .... detailed instrucitons on how to get the prerequisits set up. B. on http://couchdb.apache.org/ 1. we should remove the join the erlang mailing list hyperlink to the same page: http://couchdb.apache.org/#erlang-mailing-list
the list is discontinued in favor of dev list and so the reference won't make sense. 2. on my machine send a tweet link is shown as : http://couchdb.apache.org/twitter.com/CouchDB
which won't work for end-users, I think this is happening because of missing http:// in the hyperlink, which causes it to think its relative to the same serving domain.
I didn't find the above stuff checked-in to https://github.com/apache/couchdb-documentation repo, else I would have sent a review request. Let me know how can I help fixing these small problems in documentation and will be happy to help.
Let me know if there is another way of notifying such issues and will take that path.
Thanks much.
regards.Arun Agarwal.

Hi Arun,
thanks so much for your efforts!
I would really like to point you in the right direction to fix it
right now, but we are currently migrating our website from svn to git
(it is the reason why you have not found a way to fix it) :(
Give us 2-3 weeks and I will ping you again on this mailing-list, with
hopefully awesome news how you can contribute these fixes to CouchDB
:)
P.S.: feel free to join our website group at www@couchdb.apache.org
which got just created :)
