Hi all,

I've finally got my local SVN (on Windows) + Jekyll + magic setup on my 
machine, and plan to do the following for the Apache Annotator (incubating) web 
site.


For reference, the static HTML site code lives here:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/annotator/site/


I'm planning to use Jekyll and a fork of the http://pouchdb.com/ (Apache 
License 2.0) web site--which is offline friendly, basic, clear, awesome.


I'll be putting the Jekyll code (_includes, _layouts, _posts, etc) into a `src` 
directory under
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/annotator/

So it'll be a sibling of `site`.


I'll write up the build/setup process in a README.md to be added in that 
directory also. The end result will be that site contributors will `svn 
checkout` the URL ending in `/annotator/` and have all the goods.


It'll  make more sense when you see it...which is hopefully soon. :)


The process for updating the site will then be to edit the contents of the 
`src` directory, run some `jekyll build` which will use a `_config.yml` that 
will make sure things come from and go to the correct locations. Then, `svn 
commit` and both the src and the changes will be in the right places.


If you have any objections, complaints, or other ideas, I'd be most happy to 
hear them. ^_^


Hope you're all well and secretly building the future of annotation and have 
just forgotten to post here. ;)


Cheers!

Benjamin
