Created.

BTW, what's going to be done for the project's site. 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.

Sorry to have not said this before you created it, but would it be easy to rename VCLPUB to something like VCLDOCS and use it as the CLA only space? We've already had non-CLA people create content in the existing space; so, we're thinking it would be easier to restrict who adds stuff to a new space
instead of cleaning stuff out of the existing space.

Thanks,
Josh

Alan,

- From what I can tell, anyone can go to the confluence site, create
an account,
and start adding/modifying content.  This makes sense, because it is
desirable for people to be able to easily join the community and
help with
documentation. However, from what I understand about ASF policy, any documentation that is distributed with a release artifact can only be
contributed by people who have signed a CLA.  So, what we've been
asking for
is to have a separate space that is limited such that only people
who have
signed a CLA have access to contribute content.  Then, that content
would be
exported and bundled with releases as official documentation.

For more information see the section titled "Can we use the
autoexport site as
part of our main web site?" at http://cwiki.apache.org/CWIKI/

As noted in the May 2009 report -- questions were asked of the
mentors
regarding the rules governing wiki contributions from individuals who
have not signed the CLA. It is the community's understanding that a
separate wiki will be needed -- one for official documentation
included with releases and one containing contributions from
individual who have not signed the CLA.  A request has been made to
one of the mentors who had offered to create a 2nd wiki instance.
This has not been completed yet.

I've never heard of ASF hosting Wiki's where no CLA has been signed.
Does anyone have an example of an existing ASF project that does
this?  If not, can someone point me to the VCL archive thread so I
can
"catch up"?
