Hey guys, So I don't think I'm authorized to commit to the SVN repo yet. Can someone add me to the repo?
Also, is it ok if I wipe everything in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/callback/site/trunk/ and copy everything from https://github.com/yoheishimomae/cordova-website + /public folder and have the site point to that folder?

The JIRA issue tracker [link] and the dev mailing list [link] are good places to identify areas to help out in. Next, clone the git repository for the project you are wishing to contribute to [see below or link]. We recommend employing a certain type of git workflow, please see our wiki article [link] for more information. Finally, to share your changes with the community, you can send a pull request on GitHub to the Apache git mirrors [link]. You can also advocate for your changes directly on our mailing list [link]. ---- On 12-02-13 4:39 PM, "Yohei Shimomae" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hey everyone, So Michael has been pretty busy with client project and I was wondering if anyone else would like to take a stab at writing up the content. I'm looking for the content to go into the "Want to Contribute?" (http://yoheishimomae.github.com/cordova-website/#contribute) section explaining how one can get involved in Apache Cordova. Ideally description would be less than 3 paragraphs. I don't fully understand the contribution process so it would be nice to have it written by someone who has better insight on these.

I agree with Brian, keep it simple and separate. In the longer-term, it would be nice to see the site running from a Git repository instead of SVN - for consistency and pushing along the Git infrastructure experiment.

Love that it's a single page. I've temporary put the codebase up on https://github.com/yoheishimomae/cordova-website but we should setup a repo for that under apache-cordova and move everything there. It appears we can edit the content by editing cordova-website/www/template.html and then re-gen'ing. Nice. It turns out, we already have a "repo" for the main web site - it's an SVN repo though [1][2]. So, here are some options, sorted in increasing levels of pain (my opinion): - commit your code to the SVN repo; presumably we'd essentially nullify the "build" that's going on with whatever templating they're currently using. We'd be committing the actual, final, genned files into the SVN repo, and then publishing that. Not sure how to nullify the "build", but shouldn't be difficult. - move your code to a new Apache Git repo, or maybe put it in the docs repo; I think I'd prefer to reuse docs instead of creating a new one. When we want to update the main site, we "build" the site into the checked out SVN repo, then check in the SVN bits. Still need to figure out how to nullify the "build". - get SVN completely out of the picture - the problem is that I have no idea how to do this; the "front page" staging and publishing story looks non-trivial to me; not clear how we could have it work off a Git repo instead of SVN, have it do our build, etc. Maybe it's trivial, maybe it's unpossible; I have no idea. I'd be happy to figure out the staging and publishing steps for the first two options. I don't have the time or patience for the third option.
