The files under content/projects in xml are the complete detailed status of every podling that is or has been through the Incubator. Eliminating these files is therefore problematic. There is useful information in there that goes away with a TLP LDAP or when LDAP goes away with retirement. Also these xml files do define the podling status page. Whimsy also uses yml files under content/podlings/ to document some of the same information that is in the xml. I think that this better conforms with our current workflows. I think that the data here should be made to override and replace the xml files somehow. The migration of the Incubator website to jBake and Git is definitely incomplete. Important pages still under the old style. https://incubator.apache.org/projects/ <https://incubator.apache.org/projects/> https://incubator.apache.org/clutch/ <https://incubator.apache.org/clutch/> https://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/ <https://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/> Missing pages “lost in migration": https://incubator.apache.org/facilities.html <https://incubator.apache.org/facilities.html> https://incubator.apache.org/history <https://incubator.apache.org/history> I’ve evaluated ^/incubator/public/trunk/content Moving onto ^/incubator/public/trunk and clutch Regards, Dave > > -Bertrand > > [1] https://github.com/apache/incubator/blob/master/build_site.sh > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org >
