Sigh. Sean's at it again. Just kidding! :-)
We should remove the stuff from myfaces/site from SVN. This is the *transformed* HTML and IMO it doesn't really belong in SVN (for the same reasons we discussed on the earlier lib thread.)
At the same time, you might want to join the discussions on site-dev@, where the goal is to come up with a way to facilitate building sites and also to facilitate infra@ folks from reinstating a "damaged" site quickly if the need occurs.

For those who aren't famliar with the website build procedure we use forrest to build the HTML (forrest docs should remain in SVN obviously). Then the HTML is checked into SVN. Then a chron script on minotaur does a SVN update to pull down the updated files. I could give a long list of reasons why this is a PITA but I'm thinking most people will probably agree. In the interim I'm thinking we build a tarball, scp to minotaur, remove existing website, replace with new tarball. All done by ant. Eventually we can move it to Maven but I think the Maven investigation/debate will take some time to resolve. sean
