We can easily do presentations.geoserver.org , but either it'll be a 
resource only OpenGeo can update (which is not too bad since there are 
two full time outreach engineers here, and it probably won't change too 
frequently)  or we need another authentication system in addition to 
Confluence and Codehaus / SVN.... The third option is WebDAV with a 
shared password, which I think I would prefer over another set of tokens.

But we've already got binary blobs in Confluence, and it looks like 
we'll have them in svn as well, so I think we should use one of those two.

Regarding multiple trees, we need to think about how we deal with shared 
stuff, like images that don't need to be copied for every language. 
Ideally I guess we would want them to use the language, but default to 
whatever images the English version is using if none are available. Will 
Sphinx let us do anything like that ?
