Is there anyway to back out changes or make them atomic? Once nice thing about the existing process
is that people can stage changes and make them live in an instant. Perhaps that is not a huge deal
but I prefer not having the site in a state of flux while people are accessing it.

Looks familiar? It should, cause its the same layout that we have on
http://geronimo.apache.org (with a new minor changes).
I have not done much content wise... but I did get all of the side
navigation pages setup and rendering from "SideNav *" pages (each has
its own page)... though most of those links point to non-existent pages
(hence the +).
Looks like there is a still a bit more work that needs to be done to
refine the autoexpert plugin... like the news links in the "Geronimo
News" section which are Confluence news pages link you to the Confluence
page, not the exported page
(http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxSITE/2006/07/25/test-news-post.html).
Also some more dynamic stuff, like adding new news does not
automatically export the pages. I think this is okay, we can auto
export on a periodic schedule to get around this limitation... or just
fix the plugin to be a tad more intelligent.
I've attached the vsl if anyone is interested to see the magic needed to
get autoexport to do this...

Anyways, something to think about... I think its got a lot of potential
(or I would not still be up at 3am hacking on it) :-)
