Have you considered migrating to maven and using the site generation facilities it provides?
I thought the build system we use in excalibur is currently still ant and maven is only experimental.
There is some experimental content floating around but examples in cornerstone, meta, merlin, excalibur configuration, sandbox framework - these are all working fine. I would not recommend looking too deeply into meta or merlin (a little complex), but sandbox/framework is looking rather good.
Can I build the dist with maven?
Sure - take a look at the sandbox/framework package (avalon framework build using maven). If you delete all of the java sources you basically have a reasonably good template for a new project (just need to update the project name and id and a couple of other parameters are your on your way).
To get a feel for things just do the following:
$ cd avalon-sandbox\framework $ maven avalon:dist
Then checkout the artifacts in the generated .\target directory.
It's a really simple setup - build, consolidated javadoc, site generation, and distribution build with seperate api and impl jar files. In addition, the doc would provide a perfect template for the projects your working on.
If you need and help don't hesitate to yell!
Steve.
