> We don't have much to show on http://incubator.apache.org/wicket which will 
> be our Apach based website while during the incubator. This site has to be 
> published through the use of svn, and has to be static (i.e. generated).
> Until now we used the maven xdoc format for generating the website of Wicket 
> and related projects. This is very cumbersome to make it work, not only 
> because of the format but also due to the intermediate steps necessary to get 
> the thing published. Publishing news, blogs, etc. should be very easy and 
> straightforward in this day and age of Content Management Systems. Heck, 
> there are tons of great php or Java based CMS systems available in general, 
> and only moin moin or confluence at Apache.
> Using one system as our CMS will enable us to create and add content to our 
> website quickly, and will help integrating user content with the website 
> seamlessly.
> In some discussions on our dev list, we decided to use confluence as our CMS 
> and are willing to lend a hand to support confluence as part of the infratax.
> Confluence uses a special plugin to constantly generate a website after an 
> update, so that the site is static, and not backed by a database. This is 
> rather overkill for a project of Wicket's stature, but for a bohemoth like 
> the whole of Apache, it actually makes sense to use a static website rather 
> than a dynamically generated one.
> This issue is used to track the progress of our migration from the maven 
> generated website to a confluence based website. See the subtasks for more 
> information on what is and needs to be done.
