[Firebird-docs] Quick Start Guide: 1.0 and 1.5

[Paul V. <pa...@vi...>]

Hi all,

As said in another email, I'm roughly 75% through updating the Quick
Start Guide to include the Firebird 1.5 info. However, this leads to
all kinds of nested forks of the type:

  If you use Firebird 1.0.x, then
    - If you're on Win9x/Me, do this;
    - On Win NT/2000/XP, do the other thing;
  If you use Firebird 1.5.x, then
    - On Win9x/Me, do the mambo;
    - On Win NT/2000/XP, do the samba;

I think this makes the document way too complicated, *especially* for
the new users who are its main target audience. So unless there are
serious objections I'll make two QSGs: one for 1.0.x, the other for
1.5.x, and create separate branches for them in the CVS tree. For me
this is hardly more work than what I'm doing now, and for both readers
and future doc maintainers it's a lot more convenient.
