I completely disagree.
I believe that Geronimo should also use Confluence to support generation
of the website. Aside from a few minor issues, and the lag time from
export to live, I don't see any reason not to use Confluence in this
manner. It has been on my TODO list for quite some time, I did an
initial POC, but got sucked up into TCK-land which has been taking up
most of my time.
I actually don't think that the current Geronimo website xdoc+script
thing is very good and it should go soon. Its not very friendly, people
tend to forget steps and corrupt the site, and its not easy to add new
content to.
I know, we are all sucked up into other priorities that we need to attend to. The POC in the cwiki looks great (I would chop off the JIRAs from the home page though ;-) and once we get those plugin issues fixed we should move over Confluence right away. I'll help out in any way I can ;-)
But, until we get there, we should not disrupt what we have working today, no
matter how much we would like to be using a different tool.
btw, let's discuss the plugin issues and solutions on a different thread, let
me know when you have some time to look at it because I've been also trying to
get some fixed already. AFAIK there is no other place for keeping track
(discussing actually) of this issues and fixes other than
http://could.it/bugs/browse/EXP
So far we have three subprojects listed and they are integrated in
...
The xbean piece of the site does not match the template used for the
Geronimo site, it is similar but not the same. I think we are
projecting an inconsistent web site image.
Blah... each different part of the site has a slightly different look to
it... I don't think this matters all that much right now. While once we
get all websites into Confluence, then I think it should be easy enough
to get them all kinda looking the same.
We do have a consistent look & feel all across the web site, we should keep it
that way
Bottom line, I think we should be consistent in the way we present the
web site and the way we maintain it.
Sure, and lets be consistent and use Confluence ;-)
Be careful what you wish for, another joining subproject could come in using MS
Front Page :-0
Cheers!
