And that goes back to my original statement about solutions - we tell them what to do. Infra has tools in place. They've deprecated old tools and want new tools to be used, so we make that the norm for podlings. Assuming no build requirement, we seed a git repo from the apache-website-template and have them fill it in with info, or create a skeleton off of apache-website-template that has it done. I'm even inclined to think forking apache-website-template to incubator-podling-template makes the most sense, and make the edits there. It would have all of the branches set up and a base page that infra can point to. FWIW, Jekyll is pretty heavily used across projects. I didn't use it for the incubator website due to the file parsing that's needed, but for the static content it would be fine. > > > How that content is generated does not matter, in a pinch you could > > just edit a single index.html file manually in that asf-site branch > > and be done with it. > > > -Bertrand > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org > > For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org > >
