Thanks Felicity, comments on your first feedback:

* I like your use of a simple pull request with a reviewer and a bunch of comments. While clumsy, I think it is the best process for collecting this type of feedback.

* I like the way you are bullet pointing out suggested changes.

* I think it would be helpful to provide reasons for some of your suggestions, typically "in line with ..." or "to improve readability" or "in line with our style guide" (if we were to select a preferred style guide).

* I like the idea of a template quickstart, but think it should not be tied to a specific project. As Erin picked up in the good docs project: 1. It implies favouritism, 2. It becomes out of date when the project updates. (Notably this udig quickstart is out of date, referencing an old version of the osgeolive release.)

Hello,

I am excited to say that I have finally completed the first QuickStart
review as a proof of concept to test the process.

Activityworkshop, thank you for being the guinea pig.

I have created a PR on GitHub: https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/pull/515
And I have created its partner ticket in trac:
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeolive/ticket/2187#ticket

The action items for the document owner are in a comment on the Pull
Request. I had hoped to be able to comment on things in context, but
GitHub doesn't let you work that way, so all the review comments are
together and I have formatted them using markdown. I hope it is easy
enough to follow.

I'm not too sure about the next part of the process. Theoretically, my
PR doesn't need to get merged. Document owners will need to make the
edits and then have their own PR approved. @Cameron Shorter can you
think of a way this might work? @activityworkshop, please let me know
what the experience is like at your end.

Thank you
Felicity
