Description of problem:
Based on an IRC discussion with Pete Muir, the following issues must be addressed:

1) 1.3. AAbout the Red Hat JBoss Developer Program Subscription
  * Pete is concerned about this wording: "may not address security vulnerabilities discovered after GA". He wants to check with the team because he feels we should always offer updates to fix security issues. 
  * s/The Red Hat JBoss Developer Program subscription allows you to download and deploy, free of charge, Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform subscriptions, but/The Red Hat JBoss Developer Program subscription allows you to download and deploy, free of charge, Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, but
  * s/This is the same GA release version of the product as the paid subscription/This is the same binary distribution that is available with the supported subscription"
  * s/For complete details about the Red Hat Developer Program Terms and Conditions, see/For complete details about the Red Hat Developer Program, see
  * s/The Supported Red Hat JBoss EAP subscription/The supported Red Hat JBoss EAP subscription

2) 2.1. Red Hat JBoss Developer Program Prerequisites
  * s/The Red Hat JBoss Developer Program JBoss EAP 6 Zip file is available free of charge from <ulink url="https://www.jboss.org/"/>. This version may be used for development purposes only/JBoss EAP is available under the Red Hat JBoss Developer Program subscription. This subscription is for development purposes only 

3) 2.2. JBoss EAP 6 Installation Prerequisites
  * Common Prerequisites: You don't need an account on the Customer Portal. This section is confusing. I tried to include both the free subscription and supported version, but it's not clear. 
  * Catherine Robson and Pete want to focus on the installer versions rather than the zip version. Currently the RPM installers are not available for the free Developer Program subscription. Pete needs to check with the team about making this available and recommending the Installer over the ZIP
  * The existing "JBoss EAP 6 Installation Prerequisites" topic is used in multiple guides, so I don't want to add conditions that may break something. I will remove this topic from the Quick Start Guide and modify 26697 to talk about both free and supported subscriptions.

4) 3.1.1. Download JBoss EAP 6 (Red Hat JBoss Developer Program Zip Installation)		
  * s/The Red Hat JBoss Developer Program JBoss EAP 6 Zip file is available free of charge from <ulink url="https://www.jboss.org/"/>. This version may be used for development purposes only/JBoss EAP is available under the Red Hat JBoss Developer Program subscription. This subscription is for development purposes only 
  * Change download URL from "https://www.jboss.org/products/eap.html" to "http://www.jboss.org/products/eap/download"

5) 4.2.2. Download JBoss Developer Studio and 4.2.3. Install JBoss Developer Studio 5
  * These topics should not reference version 5. Since the title contains the version and a change will impact existing maps, I will opt to create new replacement topics and leave the version out of the documentation and titles.

6) 5.1.1. Download the Quickstarts
  * Chagne the download location from "https://access.redhat.com/jbossnetwork/restricted/listSoftware.html?product=appplatform" to a yet to be determined "http://www.jboss.org/" URL.

I believe all of the concerns were addressed except the availability and instructions for the installer for the Developer Program subscription and a few of the TBD download URLs.

Comment 3 Nikoleta Hlavickova 2014-03-11 14:35:59 UTC
Verified. New Getting Started Guide issues are tracked in separate BZs.
