Re: [dss-x] INitial comments to Andrea's document on DSS Quickstart guide

[Andreas Kuehne <kuehne@trustable.de>]

Hi  Juan Carlos,

thanks for your comments!

Stefan and me started to work the quickstart in trustable's confluence
(a more fency wiki):
https://sirius.atlassian.net/wiki/display/saas/Quickstart+Guide+for+DSS
So we can scribble in the document without forwarding and merging docs
or have the complete history of our typos in the OASIS repository ;-)

At the end we can agree upon uploading the quickstart guide to the DSS-X
area or forget about it ...
I'll send you an invitation to the confluence instance.

@all: Any contributor is welcome. Just drop me a line and you'll get
writing rights!

Greetings,

Andreas
