I agree something like this would be beneficial. I'm not sure why the the responsibility would be on Alex or Carol to create this.

This is directed at Alex and Carol:

I know you are surely both swamped with your current obligations, but I would 
not make this request if I did not think it would be of great benefit to the 
community:

It would be extremely helpful to new members such as myself coming on board for the first 
time, if you could spend 15min or so of your time with a pair of headphones and a mic as 
you walk through the repository explaining in general terms how the code is laid out and 
things tie together and make this video available in the "Getting Started" 
landing page for the project.

I think this would go a long way to getting newbies like me up and running as 
quickly as possible.

Thanks,
Michael

Hi,

Recently I had to look for a way to set up fdb so that several instances
can run and connect at the same time. Adobe off. docs say that you *cant
change the port* for FDB, but it appears to be a trivial thing to do, if
you read through the code in CLI wrapper, it actually expects -p=XXXX
argument with the port number.

But this isn't the only argument it can accept, most importantly, it is
looking for a file in $HOME/.fdbinit - I don't have any file on my system
by that name, so, can anyone shed light on what is meant to be in this
file? Google gets me two hits, both are suggestions of some Adobe employee
to put that file somewhere and write something in it - it would be nice to
know what are the configuration options (w/o searching through all the
code, because things are really scattered all over the place there).

I've never used that capability.  The code is all checked in, so take a look
and see if you can figure it out.
