      Description

      To use a consistent voice in the IGB User's Guide the IGB team has decided to follow the guidelines outlined in the Microsoft Manual of Style.

      On page 3 in the user's guide it says to use consistent terminology to promote learning of technical concepts and a better understanding of them.

      Examples of inconsistent terminology in the IGB user's guide includes "Start IGB", "Launch IGB" , "Run IGB", and "Open IGB".

      This story will hold comments below containing the places in the IGB user's guide where one of the terms above are listed.

      At some point soon we will have to decide on one term and update all places identified in the comments below.

          I think "start IGB" is the most clear if we're instructing users to go from the state of IGB not running to the state of IGB running.

          Use "Start IGB"

          Older terminology was more consistent with using Java Web Start.
