Kenneth Brotman commented on CASSANDRA-14313:
---------------------------------------------
I yield to Jon Haddad due to his years of open source experience. I ask that he
simply provide the solution please and the steps to complete it; and I will
begin executing them immediately. Thanks you for helping us get past this
issue Jon as there are so many of us yourself included I'm sure that would like
to start generating some world class documentation and really making the
project shine!
> Maintain a separate repository for the online documentation

> Key: CASSANDRA-14313
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14313
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Kenneth Brotman
> Priority: Major
>
> For some reason I'm told by many committers that we should not have sets of
> documentation for other versions than the current version in a tree for that
> version. This has made it difficult, maybe impossible to have documentation
> for all the supported versions on the website at one time.
> As a solution I propose that we maintain the online documentation in a
> separate repository that is managed as the current repository under the
> guidance of the Apache Cassandra PMC (Project Management Committee); and that
> in the new repository we:
> # Maintain the code in html, css and javascript so changes can be made
> easily using any number of programs.
> # That we immediately copy the current code to a new repository, convert it
> to html, css and javascript, convert it into a multi-version form and then
> switch over to it from now on for the online documentation.
> I ask you to consider that right now there is not much on the web site. Many
> of us have the skill set to do this work in a matter of days. I can myself.
> Therefore, if this is agreeable to everyone, whether no one else helps or
> not, I will make sure its done over a two week period of time.
