AIUI the staging areas are only used by the CMS system. One edits the source using CMS and it is built into the (shared) staging area. Assuming no-one else publishes it first (!) this allows one to review the changes. Publication involves updating production from staging. The website document area consists of a workspace for the production area. This is updated by svnpubsub when the production area changes. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
