This component should become part of the standard Joomla! download package, and that's something that should be considered for 1.5. For a beginner, like me, the hardest part of Joomla! is the installation. SourceForge is intimidating, as I'm never sure what I'm downloading. Then opening over 1500 files and uploading those to a remote server is a daunting task in ftp.
With JoomlaStart those problems are removed, install takes about 6 minutes. The desktop version now sits waiting for me to install a new package, and it ensures that I get the latest package, and I load ALL the right files.
I found a few small difficulties but JoomlaPlug were there, willing to help, and hopefully my problems will identify any bugs in the system, and will be rectified.
Another refinement would be a form to create a configuration.php that meets the user requirements - because that's another hurdle that I fell over, as was the removal of the Installation folder (and does that also mean the install.php file?).
Well done JoomlaPlug - and many thanks
