FreeBSD.org website CMS
As a fan of FreeBSD, I suppose it's also no surprise that I like the FreeBSD.org website layout. Hoping to implement and learn a website content management system (CMS) myself, I was wondering what software(s) FreeBSD.org uses to manage their vast website? I apologize if this information is posted on the site, but after looking for it for some time I still came up empty-handed. Thank you so much for your time. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I apologize if this information is posted on the site, but after looking for it for some time I still came up empty-handed. The site is built out of cvs at regular intervals -- different parts of the site get rebuilt with different frequencies. Take a look at the www section of the FreeBSD cvs repository for details of how the main parts are managed: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/www/ http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/www/share/mk/web.site.mk Mostly it's just a case of checking out the www collection from cvs, and then running 'make' at the top level. A lot of the html is generated by doing XSLT transforms of XML input, or by processing SGML input -- the XML stuff tends to be more recent, and seems to be slowly taking over. Large chunks of the website come out of the documentation project: see the FreeBSD Documentation Project Primer for details of how they generate the required output: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/index.html The FDP stuff is produced by processing SGML sources: it can be turned into web pages, as here; or into PDF etc. for printing out in book format. Finally, take a look at the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list, where the project's webmasters tend to hang out: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-www/2004-August/ There's quite a lot of cross-over between that list, and [EMAIL PROTECTED] as you might expect.
