Hola Raf, nice idea and good job! the maven sandbox is open to all ASF committer - and you are - so there shouldn't be any issue on moving the code under the ASF. I think you have to submit a SoftwareGrant since it is a software donation to the ASF.
About technical PoV, I just have two observations: * unless you don't want to index a different directory than the produced site, I'd suggest to configure the plugin to be automatically executed in the `post-site ` phase; * I'd suggest to base the js search engine on a jquery compliant plugin rather than an almost abandoned project (activity is tracked as `none` on gcode) Hint (due to my recent experience on the fluido skin) * users should be able to plug the search bar in different location keep rockin'!!! best, Simo http://people.apache.org/~simonetripodi/ http://simonetripodi.livejournal.com/ http://twitter.com/simonetripodi http://www.99soft.org/ On Sat, Nov 12, 2011 at 12:37 AM, Raffaele P.
