This was my thought also. > OTOH, neither book nor maven-plugin have been maintained (AFAIK) since > they were moved out of the sandbox, and IMO they don't work too well.

If agree that they should be moved, let's start with that. If the target is doxia-tools then let's move them there, prior to the 1.3 release of Doxia and Doxia Sitetools. My feeling about Doxia Tools is that their sub projects shouldn't be released all at the same time. They are individual projects and should have their own release cycles, much like our shared components or plugins. Also I'd like to move maven-doxia-tools from shared over to Doxia. Given its description "Assists in using Doxia for site generation and report creation." I think that Sitetools would be a good home for it. > Also the doxia-test-docs should move somewhere else. What are those? They look like they could be the basis of an IT suite.
