Dave, and ++1 My last paragraph is wrong-worded. Try
That could be a big win with regard to continuous engagement and support of the end-user-oriented community, allowing us to stage through *incubation* without yanking the rug out from under OpenOffice.org in their faces. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Dennis E.

Since this site might be exactly what is needed to serve up as OpenOffice.org from Apache infrastructure, I suggest that there not be a production target, but just a staging target that can be viewed and reviewed in testing but not published. The production target could host a domain of our choosing, but quite possibly OpenOffice.org when the DNS is moved from the current hosting to Apache hosting and incubation of migration between http://incubator.apache.org/opendocumentorg (and the eventual http://openofficeorg.apache.org/ or whatever the development face URL becomes. This provides a soft landing for OpenOffice.org and for further incubation as the division is worked through. That could be a big win with regard to continuous engagement and support of the end-user-oriented community, allowing us to stage through integration without yanking the rug out from under OpenOffice.org in their faces. Thanks, Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Dave Fisher [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2011 14:52 To: OOo-dev Apache Incubator Subject: [proposal][www][lazy] Apache CMS Site for the OpenOffice.org Website Migration I would like to propose the following change in approach for the migration of the openoffice.org website to Apache. We should split the site svn tree into two separate trees. This will allow us to quickly address the divergent license, copyright, and footer issues with clarity and without working against the Apache CMS's framework. Mixing the openoffice.org migration with the incubator site as subfolders is now a plroblem. I realized I was about to bloody my forehead - bash my head against a wall. Here are the details. (1) Split the current ooo/site/trunk/ and create ooo/ooosite/trunk/. Move all of the openoffice.org migrated content to the ooo/ooosite/ site tree. Each site will now have its own templates/skeleton.html with correct license headers, copyrights, and terms. (2) Request that infrastructure attach the new ooo/ooosite/ tree to the cms buildbot and webgui. If Infrastructure is willing I propose - http://ooo-site.apache.org/. If it must start as part of the incubator then http://incubator.apache.org/ooo/ (3) Every AOOo committer will be enabled to use the Apache CMS's webgui to make edits in order to align the site's policies to the new project. It has been confirmed that it is possible to edit the source html in the WebGUI / Bookmarklet. As Dennis has written these should be minimal. (4) No changeover of the current www.openoffice.org until the project agrees. I'll start the tree splitting process this Friday in 72 hours allowing plenty of time for comments and consensus.
