Can you find out where the ActiveMQ folks got that sexy box image
from? I'd *love* to have a nice box like that (g-styled of course)
for our page too :-)

Hey Jason,
I'm trying to catch up with the News/blog-posts on GMOxSITE as part
of the web site update. I created a few tests (added News) but
these posts take forever to show up. Any suggestions?
Anyway, do you have any idea how could we port the *News* we have
on the live site?
Cheers!
Hernan

Folks,
after lots of separated discussions on different threads it is
clear the spirit for moving the authoring of our web site over
Confluence. Let's bring to this thread all the ideas and discussion.
Proposal:
The idea is to use Confluence as the authoring tool for
Geronimo's web site. To achieve this we will use the autoexport
plugin already installed and in use on the cwiki.apache.org.
With the autoexport plugin we can customize the generated HTML
look and feel by using templates. The current POC can be viewed
at http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxSITE (thx Jason D.)
Some suggestions (mine ;-) )
- Avoid JIRA references/direct imports, if JIRA is down or
running slow it will affect the main web site.
Eh... maybe... though JIRA should not be down or slow. These are
also static pages, which only pull images off of the JIRA webapp,
but we could remove the icon from the rendering. I personally
think its useful to show some JIRA activity on some page on the
website. Shows that we are still moving even if the website
content isn't.
- Remove edit/print/export links from the generated site. Only
Geronimo committers will have edit access
Fine w/me.
- Update the template L&F. Why not? It is a good opportunity to
do it !!!
Ya, probably some changes to be made... I like the Cayenne site a
lot... clean, simple... nice popup menus.
- Need to define how to integrate the other subprojects web sites
(consider confluence spaces too).
Aye, we need a basic theme that works for the main site,
documentation sites and sub-project sites.
- pls chime in!!!
I volunteer to start updating the content (matching with what we
already have on the live site), unless somebody else wants to go it!
I will also look at some alternative templates.
I really would like to see this happen... so I can lend a hand.
