Definitely deserves +1

However, I'm still torn between using apt and a wiki site but whichever wins I think the obvious casualty will be the site-plugin.

If we continue on using the pages generated by the site plugin, and based from John Casey's "Core Documentation" point #2, it will be a major revision to the site plugin to pull that off. But after that, things will be easier and the only problem I see will be the lack of contributions from outside the maven devs team bec, really, sending a patch for the first time is tedious. Plus the fact that after sending the patch, one will wait for it to be patched and deployed.

Now if we work on a wiki site, then a lot of the information (javadoc, changelog, etc) already generated by the site plugin will be under-utilized (if not unused) and they will have to be reproduced in the wiki. Although, this may probably be another plugin's work but its a wiki, so there will probably be user edits on the same page and those edits should then be propagated back to the plugin's docs (again, probably another plugin's work).

Maybe there's a way to use both the wiki and the pages generated by the site plugin altogether for this? So we can benefit from the pros of both.


I know there are code laying around to suck the content out of Confluence and transform that into a Doxia Source. Then with some shell magic we could import the documentation in Confluence and rebuild the site on a daily basis.

Ma, look what I found [1]!
