+1 as long as each project can be done separately (ie each plugin and the main site). Making it an artifact would be great to do so we can offer a download of the maven docs in a standard way.
This does need to be considered along with the other discussion that I haven't had a chance to pull together yet, about what is actually displayed on the front maven site and what is historical. I think the conclusion was that the site should be the same across releases with the exception of news and status, FAQ and other things unrelated to the actual release. - Brett > -----Original Message----- > From: Vincent Massol [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, 4 September 2003 6:36 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: 'Maven Developers List' > Subject: Several web site versions in CVS > > > Hi dIon, > > I've looked at the new strategy for rendering several > websites for the plugins (by storing the different versions > in CVS).
