Hello,

I've been developing the SitemapXML-Maven-Plugin recently and now
it is in a stage where it is tested, documented
and ready to be released (or at least to be put into the sandbox if
releasing is out of the question).


What the plugin does:
---------------------
  The plugin generates a sitemap.xml from a doxia site.xml.
  All <item name="foo" href="bar" /> tags will get parsed and
  all internal hrefs will get included into the sitemap.
  The final sitemap.xml will also get gzipped.
  Both files will then reside in target/site/.
  The xml follows the standard: http://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.php

  It can be used together with "$> mvn site" to generate the sitemap.xml
  together with the site when using maven-site-plugin.
  (See the example-one.apt file in the project.)

Obtaining the plugin
---------------------
  To get the zip of the project use the jira ticket 1399:
  http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MOJO-1399

  direct link:
  http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/attachment/43015/SitemapXML.tar.bz2

The SitemapXML Plugin now has:
------------------------------
 - doxia site with faq section (valid through mvn docck:check)
 - an unit test
 - verbose and well documented javadoc

Future features
---------------
 - defining additional site.xml files for subprojects, so that one big
   sitemap.xml will be generated
 - generating robots.txt with link to sitemap.xml or adding link to
   sitemap.xml to existing robots.txt
 - scanning all xdoc, apt etc. files for other relative links to pages
   not linked from the site.xml that should appear in the sitemap
 - exclusion list for urls that should not be part of the sitemap.xml
 - changefreq and priority for the sitemap.xml url entrys



thx,

Bernhard Grünewaldt
