Hej, anyone able to take a look at the migration from our website: incubator.apache.org/odftoolkit/ Sufficient if it looks as good as now :)
The problem we have to drop this CMS support, which was interleaved with the SVN usage, when we are moving to GIT. The problem in a nutshell: We have to reuse our Django templates to put down pieces of markup expressed by markown, best with reusing the Perl scripts from the lib directory. :) My guess would be to use some Django Template engine, which also can be interleaved with Perl script, therefore likely running on Perl. Or we port it to an equivialent functionality, anything you like, for instance Apache Velocity. :-) As I am fully booked and will likely not make it before mid of next month earliest, it would be great if someone could jump in. The front-end world is completly new to me, anyway..
