So you want to periodically run Confluence to pull the atoms, generate HTML,
publish that to SVN, and update the site from SVN? I just want to be clear
on the process you envision.
I'm actually OK with the above, although I believe that we can (eventually)
do better, and that it would be temporary. What I voted against against is
going off site.
Mind you, this has nothing to do with JIRA integration, which is why I asked
what you want in that regard, and if you had mentioned it to the Roller
folks, who are our partners and peers in the ASF, and where we should look
first for collaboration (again, eat our own dogfood as a good strategy).

I didn't suggest any such thing, nor do I see how you could infer that from
my reply to your comment that Confluence and JIRA are similar.
