Re: Wiki contributions from individuals who have not signed the CLA
Website generation occurs in two phases. 1) auto-export exports on changes to pages 2) a committers personal cron job copies the exported files to the proper place for the web server to pick them up To set this up we need someone to work out a template. I recommend that you peruse the existing websites and start w/ one that is close to how you want it to look. I'll get their template and you can then fiddle with it. I can send the cron tab entry for who ever volunteers to host the export copy.

We'd like to use the auto export from the CLA-only wiki for the project's site. I think it would be a good idea to use the templating feature of the auto export. How do we go about setting that up?

Some projects create the pages themselves others auto-export a space from the Confluence wiki. The auto export allows for templating of the wiki content.
