Great. I don't know much about Anakia either. From what i have seen from using this one, it is very straight-forward. http://www.apache.org/dev/infra-site.html Also their is Geir's experiment at incubator/site to play with and tweak output stylesheets and stuff. > >>I'd like to introduce more site content cleanup, but wanted to wait > >>until that was resolved. > > > >Yes, i didn't know what to do.

It should not matter to the content editors. Lets make the conversion process repeatable.

If someone is brave enough to add that much weight to the svn checkout of incubator. I don't think that it is worth it. My suggestion is for people to concentrate on content and just one or two of us do manual generation from time-to-time. > - I'll offer to help you build/publish (at least this would gain a > builder in a different time zone).

Well we are not hearing from Geir, and the others that wanted to move are not helping, so lets try. I am investigating creating a Forrest output plugin to do the complete conversion. If Geir or others come up with another solution then fine, this will still be a useful tool for Forrest. -David --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
