Hi, thanks for doing this! It seems that this process is still a bit rough and it is one of my top priorities to get this smoother and that we can run it from the zone.
I've did a minor update on the main page, there was still 1.4 as release and 1.5 beta 2 as beta listed. I noticed that for the site, the pages that go through the velocity/doxia renderer did not get updated (they still had 1.4 as release), so I assume that this is one of the rough edges. Will look into this. Also for the Engine site, the JIRA report listed only a few issues, this might be a problem with the jira report plugin (I've contributed lots of fixes here). I've deployed both sites again, they should be fine now.
