<div class="postbody">Thanks for your answers.<br />
<br />
Yes, a reference documentation first is ideal.<br />
Problem is : that's a HUGE work. I can't help with it.<br />
Would it be possible to resolve one problem at a time ?<br />
<br />
My problem is to keep the new users :<br />
Petals ESB works fairly well once you know how to use it.<br />
But lots of people come, download it, try it, then go away.<br />
(Only 5% come on the forum)<br />
<br />
Experience says : almost every new Petals user comes for an ESB evaluation.<br />
Why does he go away ? I think he just can't get it run.<br />
<br />
So we need to help him start with Petals, for his evaluation.<br />
Do you think a few <span style="font-weight: bold">tutorials</span>, demonstrating the most evaluated features, would help him ?<br />
<br />
This, at least, would be easier to create than a full documentation, and could be online in a month.<br />
<br />
