So I have fixed jtvh link with 2.0 text updated June.
user getting started points to:
http://www.accessgrid.org/documentation/gettingstarted.html
under software, AG2.0 developer getting started page points
to:http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/fl/research/accessgrid/software/developers/index.html
tell me if this helps for now.... I believe one is specific for getting
started with software, the other specifically states support for getting
started in the AG community after ag node is up and working....
