The question is /which/ developers. If you insist that trunk documentation is for contributors to the project only ... then I beg to differ. It's a very useful resource. Making it harder to find is less than friendly. On the other hand, in this day of massive search engines, it doesn't really matter where you put the generated documentation -- it gets indexed one way or another. Unless you're now going to say that the dev/ part of the site alsy needs its own robots.txt that prevents indexing by search engines. :) -- Brane --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
