> Currently all documentation is hosted and maintained in the Confluence wiki
> (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Home). The wiki has certain
> drawbacks that are not easy to circumvent.
> 1. Contributions are cumbersome. New contributors have to request a wiki
> account from INFRA and then the PMC must give additional karma to the user to
> be able to modify the space.
> 2. Reviews are difficult. There is no built-in feature in Confluence that
> allows to review changes before updating the content of the space.
> 3. History is hard to track. Although, versioning is supported at page level
> finding who and when modified a part of the page is not straightforward.
> Moreover, when pages get moved, deleted, etc., it's very hard or impossible
> to track what happened.
> 4. Limited access control. Any user with the basic permissions that are
> usually given on-demand can modify any part of the space without anyone
> realizing.
> The above shortcomings can be alleviated by putting the documentation under
> the Website (https://hive.apache.org/) that is under version control (git).
> Shortcomings of confluence have appeared various times in discussions in the
> dev list:
> * https://lists.apache.org/thread/58zhfdklq485c6942fj0lmpzmh8o9fch
> * https://lists.apache.org/thread/jcck8tdod3hyzf5wjzxzn075xn79st4h
