I got chatty blog-wise about the last 6 months chair-wise for me and ideas 
for 2005. Nothing really new to anyone on the list I suspect, but might be 
interesting reading:

Will it use the same styles as the foundation/top level site?
Especially given that they look so similar now, its a bit weird that
the fonts change.
Looks like www.apache uses:
  Arial, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif
whereas jakarta.apache only specifies the font for headings and uses:
  arial,helvetica,sanserif
Sites always seem to be better with an actual font choice and not 
defaults, so I see no problem with changing fonts. Might end up tie-ing a 
.css sheet into the xsl as that's the easiest way to handle such things.

Thanks for the offer of help. I was planning at looking at this 
tomorrow. I was going to look in CVS to see what you changed on 
jakarta-site2 and go from there. If anything doesn't make sense I'll let 
you know.
FYI: The Tomcat site now builds (via ANT and XLST) without the need for 
jakarta-site2. There is plenty of scope for streamlining the build but 
that is rather lower priority.

You mean you could know more than the O'Reilly XSLT book that I have to 
pour through to remind myself of simple changes? :)

Any help is very welcome. The only one that leaps to mind right now is the 
Ant xslt task, where I'm having to c+p a bit more than I want to. So not 
really an xslt problem. Seb's recent suggestions fixed the major xslt 
problems I was facing.

However, I'll start to compile a list; or you could take a look at 
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-site2/xdocs/stylesheets/site.xsl?view=markup 
and let us know what's screwy.

There's obviously a lot that needs to move into CSS. I've a set of changes 
for the 3-tier version that aren't checked in yet; though as I screwed up 
it is viewable in an older version:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-site2/xdocs/stylesheets/site.xsl?rev=1.15&view=markup
It's generally not much different. project.xml changes to site.xml and I 
modify that to have navbar elements. The site/logo bit needs to be removed 
too.

the reason these discussions are on a public list is so that anyone in the 
jakarta community (whether users, developers, committers, pmc'ers or members) 
can contribute to the discussion and help build a better jakarta.

thanks for speaking up and i'd like to extend an open invitation to any other 
lurkers who've been waiting for a reason to join in...

WRT Struts, it does not depend on site2. Its site generation is self-contained.

Including, FWIW, JAMES (ex-Jakarta project).  But we can clone what we need
until/if we replace it.

Both HttpClient and Ant appear to use Maven or Forrest for their sites 
though, so I'd think it's a pretty low chance that they still use things.

I think all of Commons is Mavenised, and I checked all of Jakarta in this 
way to find old style l&f and then examined those by hand. Looking at the 
graduated projects, Struts and James still look old style; so they've got 
a good chance of still using site2.

Looking at them, both Struts and James appear to be on XSLT variants, but 
no use of the site2 jars or stylesheets.

Still, not to say that others in your list don't use it, such as jyve or 
various proposals in James etc, just nothing 'big' I think.

I did a search for the string "jakarta-site2" in the build.xml,v files
in CVS, and that produced quite a lot of hits (see
http://www.apache.org/~sebb/js2.txt - note that the matched text is
*followed* by the file name).

Some of the matches relate to history items, but some are in the HEAD
versions of the files, for example:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/ant/proposal/ant-site/anakia/build.xml?only_with_tag=HEAD&view=markup

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-commons/httpclient/build.xml?only_with_tag=HEAD&view=markup

Of course we don't know if the build targets are actually still used,
but it suggests that these files are rather more generally used.
