    1010 * The quickstart.html is intended to be as simple as possible. Options (you can do it this way or that way as you prefer) or branches (if you are in this situation do this, else do that) are strongly discouraged from being written into quickstart.html. If at all possible, please move those to AdvancedInstall.

    12 The goal is that if the user starts with a system that has nothing installed on it (no Python, no compiler, etc.), but it has a network connection, they can follow the instructions in quickstart.html, which instruct them to install Python, and pywin32 if they are on Windows, and download the Tahoe-LAFS source code, and run {{{python setup.py build}}}, and then they'll have a {{{bin/tahoe}}} that works.
     12The goal is to start with a bare OS and a network connection (no Python, no compiler) and get to a working {{{./bin/tahoe}}} by downloading a few things and running {{{setup.py build}}} (which downloads the rest).
