The first draft of the "Application Developers Guide" has been checked 
into CVS. The source is in docs/xml/ApplicationDevelopersGuide.xml and the HTML 
version 
is in docs/html/ApplicationDevelopersGuide.html.

I have tried to keep the changes to this document to a minimum (as more 
complete changes will be added for 2.0). However, there are substantial new 
sections, including "Widget Maturity Levels" and "Step 4 - Running Your 
Application". 

Some specific thing that still need to be done: 

* Are there any other sections that really need to be in this 1.99 version? If 
so, what are they?

* Do you think we should include a basic section on mapfiles in this document - 
or is that for MapServer documentation to explain?

* In the "Step 4 - Running Your Application" section, I need someone (Paul?) to 
write me a little material to fill out: "Chameleon allows PHP variables to be 
passed to the template via the setVar method. For more information see ?????."

* In the "Step 4 - Running Your Application" section, I need someone (Paul?) to 
write me a little material to fill out: "If you have a context file you wish to 
load into your application you may:?????" 

Please read through it and make any changes/deletions/additions you feel are 
necessary. You can either change the *source* yourself (DO NOT CHANGE THE 
HTML), or make a comment in this bug about what you feel needs changing. 

Everyone is welcome to comment, but I need at least the following people to 
review the document:

* Paul Spencer 
* Chris Thorne
* Jeff McKenna
* Jason Fournier

If anyone feels that there's anyone else you definitely want to review this 
document, please contact them.
