First off, let me say that I think the documentation that exists for EzPublish is good, and seems to be getting better all the time. However, there is a serious gap that will just defeat most users, and no matter how well designed EzPublish is, and what great features it has, most users will give up on it and move on. What is missing is a good Getting Started article. Once a user has installed EzPublish, and looked at the Demo, they will want to start making their own site - but were do they start? It would be really useful to have an article that starts users off creating their own site, a "Hello World" site. Once a user is getting on with this, they can read up on EzPublish features and learn them by applying them. At the moment the EzPublish documentation is a good reference source that explains variables, objects, classes, etc. - but it is difficult to see were to begin. I feel like I have to read ALL the documentation before I can even start to make a single page! Hope someone at EzPublish takes note of this, and writes a good article!
