-------------------------------------
Hi Kalle,
Where do we stand on this issue? Are you still awaiting the correct
group/permissions from infra to be able to create the target directory?
> Set-up AutoExport of Shiro documentation to the appropriate location
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SHIRO-102
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHIRO-102
> Project: Shiro
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Alex Salazar
> Assignee: Kalle Korhonen
> Fix For: 1.0.0

> Original Estimate: 2h
> Remaining Estimate: 2h

> In order to post documentation on the Shiro site, the documentation has to be
> exported onto some online space where the main site can link to it. Further,
> it needs to be set up such that the documentation is auto-exported with every
> build so that the shiro site is automatically kept up to date.
> Here is the email thread from the dev list that covers the issue in more
> detail:
