All, So I want to put this out there as an idea I had been toying with. With our new logo we should launch a new incubator website. Something more modern looking and easier to maintain. This is in part what I was trying to do with the git conversion, but decided it needed a bigger overhaul. With some of our notions of starting from scratch on a number of policy documents, I'm wondering if it makes sense to just reboot the whole website.
I pushed up a branch with a possible website. Its based on jbake. We can go any number of ways with how to maintain content, but this solves a few issues: - Anakia has been in the archive area of velocity for a long time - Editing the underlying XML is a pain You can find the branch here: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/jbake-site;hb=refs/heads/jbake-site I'm using JBake, which gives us some amount of synergy since we can use Freemarker or Groovy as templates. I used groovy, since part of what I wanted to test was XML processing. but if we do a full conversion of each podling from the XML file into an individual file that can be avoided. the other benefit is that it allows us to publish static JSON files with podling metadata in it.
