As initial information for others, the look of this site is the standard issue 'forrest pelt theme' and if so wish, can be changed to have more unique feel to it. This can wait I think until the site is live and populated with docs. > > Btw., it looks like a couple of typos snuck into index.xml and > bugs.xml.

Damn, sorry, I tested using 'forrest run' which ensures the site is mostly fine and working - but does not scrutinise the xdocs for validity against the DTD. Only when a 'forrest site' or 'forrest validate-xdocs' is run do the files get checked against the DTD. > ... but I still get the error below at the > end.

Easy one and my bad again. Automatically a favicon.ico is associated with the site and is in fact copied there when doing a 'forrest seed-sample'. As you found out though this produces many un-needed sample files. So I created the initial layout with a 'forrest seed-basic' which gives you a site structure but no files and in this case no favicon either. So the cure is to stick a favicon.ico directly into the xdocs folder. The site will then build successfully. > > The two typos are: a missing underscore in the section id > mailing_list in index.xml and a stray # in bugs.xml. Forrest > gives rather cryptic errors for them. The error messages were mainly to do with why they did not conform with the DTD - i.e the # symbol is not allowed directly beneath <ol> and points out that only <li> can go inside. Most of the time, we will use Forrests v2.0 DTD - http://forrest.apache.org/dtdx/document-v20.dtdx.html (it is working towards being more xhtml2 compliant) > > So sounds like the next step is to commit the prototype into svn > and set up a cron job to get it periodically published into some > sandbox (such as my home directory) so we can work on the tables > etc. Is that how you'd like to proceed? Yep, fine by me, at least I'll be able to be useful with patches then. Once your happy with stability, completeness and the forrestbot publishing is working well, then it can be moved when your happy. > > I'm also curious if you have a suggestion for our documentation. > Would it make sense to try to convert it as well or might some > other solution be more appropriate? I have referred this to the Forrest dev list. It should not be a problem in principle, convert the .html files into xdoc xml and then back into .html integrated into the rest of the generated site. Hopefully the initial conversion to xdoc can be automated. Once in xdoc xml format then they can be placed appropriately, added to the site.xml and tabs.xml files and from then on be part of the site proper. > > > > > I notice Jira replies are set to issues@, is there a Jira ticket filed > to > > change this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Not yet.

I don't have the access to do it, I've asked on #infra and will let you know if someone does it. Otherwise you need to send a mail to apmail@ and file a Jira Issue on infra for it to be done .
