I'll see about devoting some time to this in the near future - we need to solve the site issue...

I have no problem doing the site maintenance. We just need to make a decision on the infrastructure. Here are the issues as I see them, with possible alternative solutions.

1. Content repository
   a. In our current repository:
      /httpd/mod_python/site/whatever
   b. Under the apache /httpd/site repository:
      /httpd/site/trunk/lib/mod_python
(This would require mod_python committers getting commit privileges for /httpd/site).

2. Website
   a. http://www.modpython.org
(We'd need a mechanism to update the site from the repository. This could be as simple as a cron job on modpython.org to grab the current content from the svn repository once a day).
   b. httpd://httpd.apache.org/mod_python
(If we use the /httpd/site repository and build infrastructure, the website gets updated automatically).

   c. Other? Perhaps modpython.apache.org?


3. Site design
  a. httpd.apache.org design (and tools)
  b. Current modpython.org design
  c. All new design.

4. Online html-docs
   a. www.modpython.org
   b. httpd.apache.org

5. Location of the faq, which is dynamic content and cannot be accomodated under http://httpd.apache.org.
   a. modpython.org
   b. other?

6. [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list archive
   a. modpython.org/pipermail
   b. other location?


I'd suggest we leave 4, 5 and 6 as is, since that infrastructure is in place and works. What we need is a way to keep have website content in subversion, and a mechanism for updating the host.

As a result of the nudge from Justin I've hacked out a minimum build
system for us to play with, based on the httpd doc infrastructure.

You can download it from:

Untar and check the README for further instructions.

The generated output can be found at

I'll gently prod that this would be *really* nice to deploy - even as
a placeholder while you add even more content.  =)  -- justin
