wrt setting up eclipse, perhaps you could post your instructions on a blog somewhere and we can link to it. cheers ----------------- Aaron Morton Freelance Cassandra Developer @aaronmorton http://www.thelastpickle.com On 11/10/2011, at 5:51 AM, hani elabed wrote: > Hi Aaron, > > I can help with the documentation...
