I am investigating the source for the geronimo.apache.org site and see that

all apache sites, is based on XML templates that use ant to build the HTML

Is this a *RULE* or we can use HTML and CSS directly?
We can do whatever we prefer and I would prefer that we create a Maven
website. It's pretty easy to do and I'm very familiar with it. All it
requires are xdocs formatted documention as outlined in the Maven 1.1
user guide.
I'll look through the user guide although checking at the current site I count only 15 pages. I am
wondering if it is worth to invest in xdoc and multiplying the number of files and complexity when
this site is relatively simple to maintain in HTML directly (static pages + low number of pages).
Is it planned to have a *trunk* for the site being updated in svn. What is the
process for updating
the web site?
The current site is here:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/site
and I was going to continue working there with the intention of
checking in any of the work toward the Maven website.
It will also be cool to have a *test* URL where everybody can see the progress
of the upgrade and
provide feedback to the new L&F and structure.
If you have a user account at the ASF you can publish HTML from
http://people.apache.org/ and this can be used as a test spot for the
site.
I'm a "simple mortal", not a committer :) don't write have access.
In fact, subject aside, not being a committer I can't join the infra dist list neither to follow up
on the confluence thread.
Cheers!
