Quietly and without much fanfare, we have released the first document in our new Liferay Documentation Project. This is because it's a rather small document, but it fills a need to have some instructions for using our Plugins SDK available. Since the Plugins SDK is now the preferred method for creating portlets and themes, not having it documented was sort of a glaring omission.

This is also the first document to give an introduction on how to create Liferay themes, culled from our open document project, the Liferay wiki (where all the content is licensed under the same MIT license we use for the source code). Special thanks is definitely due to those who worked on the Themes document out there on the Wiki. This would have taken a lot longer to produce without the support from our community.

Eventually the Plugin Development Guide will get merged into our larger Liferay Developer's Guide, which is still in-process. Our next release will likely be the first version of the Liferay Administrator's Guide.
