Hi

Jeremy and I followed up on this a bit on the infra list. Here is a short summary of where we are now..

The justification for moving away from Confluence is linked from here: http://wiki.apache.org/general/ApacheCms2010

In our case I think that the immediate gains are:

1) Any committer being able to update the web pages without having to have a separate ID 2) Being able to see the result immediately (no up to 4 hour wait for publication) 3) Being able to put things like TCK results into the site rather than hosting them from our home directories. 4) Not having to have a Confluence admin on the team (currently only I or Guillaume can push out updates to the navigation pages).


One project has already moved away from Confluence an others are in progress.

There is a perl script for converting cwiki format to markdown - see here: https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/cms/conversion-utilities/cwiki/README.txt

I plan to experiment with this more next week and will report back....

Zoƫ
