Document update suggestion.

Keeping in mind the documents are implied as step by step instructions.

The instruction |cvs update -dP  could get complicated for some developers due to
|

|missing perquisites steps on page http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/appdev/source.html|

|The two steps I can remember I did at the time was to create a directory "CVSROOT" at ~/cvs/CVSROOT
|

|then point to that directory as the "cvs application" home directory  with the  command|
||

|$ *cvs -d /nfs/roc/home/cvs command*|

||

|I actually went to this page https://www.eoas.ubc.ca/research/moc2/cvstutorial/setting.html
|

|to complete the setup because your documents are incomplete.|

|
|

|I also think I had a smoother ride of the setup because I was using a *.nix {ubuntu} so the VI/VIM editors,|

|which are built in the Operating System launch automatically without issue with cvs.
|

|I also noticed on another mailing list some people, who even work as a pair still couldn't get "up and running"
|

|with the supplied maven archetype examples. Due to the fact mvn command line |||argument(s) ||||{ javafx:run || jetty:run ] |was not mentioned  .|

|In this case javafx:run need to be set as goals for this particular IDE. Due to missing setup instruction(s) the time and effort of archetype can go to waste. These minor missing instructions can be a major headache in getting a potential developer "up and running".|

|This "up and running" is not just a step but an important *milestone* especially For experienced developers. This is because after that the experience developers know from this point on they have taken over control of the software behaviour.
