Cherokee Users/Developers:

It has been mentioned before that I am working on a brand new 
documentation system for Cherokee.  This is true, of course, but with 
the new documentation system I have also taken on the task of 
re-creating the Cherokee website to be much much better overall.  Since 
the new documentation system will have the ability to pull directly 
from Subversion I also wanted to take on the task of fixing Trac since 
it is pretty broken right now.  All of that work is going very well and 
will have a demo of the new Trac up later this week.  Once everything 
has been tested I can call it stable and get it running at 
cherokee-project.com!

The new features of the website include:

 - New documentation system (hooks right into SVN so docs can be 
contained to specific versions of Cherokee)
 - Complete i18n!!  The documentation system AND the new website will 
have complete support for as many languages as we can translate them 
to.  This is all thanks to the AWESOME i18n support Django has built 
right in.
 - New blog system (a good place where we can provide updates to the 
community about Cherokee and its development)
 - Brand new Trac system using 0.10.4.  Trac will be fixed up and 
working (you will be able to actually submit tickets hehe).  It will be 
a fluid design as opposed to the current fixed width so it will work 
better on bigger screens.
 - Perhaps more features once I or you think of them!

Want to help me?  I need translators!  Since the documentation and 
website will have i18n support the only next step is to get the text 
translated from English to any language you can use.  If you are 
interested in helping with this let me know.  Shoot me an e-mail at 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with your e-mail (obvisisouly) and what language you 
would like to support.  Once the site hits stable with functionality I 
will be able to send you gettext files for you to translate.  The rule 
is if we want to add any other language other than English then you 
must be able to translate both the website and documentation to allow 
that language to be included.  I don't want to have incomplete 
languages and I don't think you would either if it was your langauge ;)

Wow, with all this typing I forgot to give you the best part.

It is a pre-alpha release and nothing is final or even complete (so 
anything can change.)  But you get the idea ;)  Yes, yes I know it is 
being served off of Apache (ick) but it was quick and easy at the time. 
 Final version will work with Cherokee (there is a bug in Cherokee and 
Django that is sort of holding it up a little).

Let me know what you think!
