Hi,

Although we're not there, I've updated the overview as posted long ago  
here too. You can find it at this URL:

http://download.blender.org/release/install.html

What is still not filled in is:
- how $HOME for windows is defined
- python script conventions

Also important is that Blender should remain running in Unices when you  
move the binary around, an error like ".Blanguages not found" should be  
not needed, but just be mentioned in the readme.txt in the install  
directory.

For this release I doubt we can make the changes we want (like moving  
all files to .blender). But this certainly remains a hot topic to solve  
once:
- verify this html has the actual correct situation, and agree on  
requirements
- make sure all our code works that way

-Ton-
