Yup, once we move to cwiki I will reorg the documentation, and along comes another call for
volunteers to contribute with this effort :)
The plan is, each release doc goes into it's own space, other docs will be grouped by relevance into
their own separated spaces. The main pointers to those spaces will be from the Geronimo web site.
Having individual spaces will give us more flexibility for managing them, better structure, reduced
footprint for the exports, improved performance, etc, overall content will be more organized.
It is funny, on my local confluence installation, I have been working on that reorganization for
some time now and I called the spaces (the short names) in the same way :D
We are working with the infrastructure team to see what's needed to go live
with cwiki.apache.org
Cheers!

Just a thought... we may eventually want to have a space per-version
for our documentation.
GDOCS10
GDOCS11
etc...
I think we should not limit ourselves to one space, but use them to
organize documents on a very high-level.

I just wanted to show how the doc will potentially look like, just the
look & feel. The content is
being baked and what is shown there is not the main page, just a
tentative TOC under development for
the Geronimo v1.1 documentation
Once cwiki is implemented, the main page should be on the Geronimo web
site pointing to the specific
Geronimo's version and available project's documentation. In plain
English it would be something like:
Documentation page
- Apache Geronimo v1.0 - User's guide
- Apache Geronimo v1.1 - User's guide
- Apache Geronimo - Developer's guide
...
On the draft I sent, I just wanted to highlight the top banner, the
removal of user names and the
ASL license disclaimer at the bottom of each page, not the actual
content. However, this is a good
opportunity to refresh the call for volunteers to contribute with the
Project's documentation.
Just in case you forgotten ;) , the TOC for Geronimo's v1.1
documentation is available at the
following URL:
http://opensource.atlassian.com/confluence/oss/display/GERONIMO/Apache+Geronimo+V1.1+-+Documentation
If anybody is able to contribute with the project's documentation, in
any possible way, please feel
free to ping me if you have any questions, concerns, suggestions, ....
Thanks in advance !!!
Cheers!
