stack commented on HBASE-2672:
------------------------------

@Cosmin This is what README.txt says: "See the docs directory or http://hbase.org"

I don't think we should put doc. into README.txt.  Rather it should be in the hbase 'book' which user can find in subdir.  README.txt should just point to it.  Otherwise we'll have doc. in two places.  What you think?
