AFAICT Gliffy just generates images.  Those should be copied over by
the conversion utils.  Obviously the CMS doesn't have a Gliffy plugin
so you'd have to generate the images on your workstation and upload
them to the CMS, perhaps to an attachment directory.

The conversion utils are at

https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/cms/conversion-utilities/cwiki/

The build system is at

https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/cms/build/

Note there some python prereqs for the build system as it relates to
markdown. For details see
