Just be warned that the ASF infrastructure team do not support a wide
range of solutions for managing Apache websites. The main reason is that
they have to make sure our servers stay up and running and you'd be
surprised at the load placed on them and the security requirements we have.
The basic rule is that the content must be statically served from ASF
servers and that content must be placed in SVN to allow infra to do
their "magic".
The ASF provides simple CMS system for creating websites. I'd describe
this as bare bones, but functional. It allows for online and offline
(via subversion) editing. There are also a number of tools for
generating the static content from other sources.
When it comes time to consider the publication chain your mentors will
tell you more.

Good idea. We could even go using the open-sourced web content management system
'Trialox CMS' which is based on Apache Clerezza.
But I'd suggest to first focus on the content of the website instead of spending
too much time in create the pages dynamically. The current site on
http://incubator.apache.org/clerezza/
is simply too bad (and it's still having this nasty typo at the beginning of the
page 'ApachClerezza').

Hi Tsuy
I see no reason not to eat our own dogfood and create the website using
Clerezza as we're currently doing.

Hi
I am working on the html prototype of the clerezza website. I want to
ask if somebody knows if there are any best practices on how to
deploy/maintain an apache website (xsite?). IMO most of the website
content is static and therefore does not have to be created
dynamically. Probably we have a news section and a download section
which should be generated dynamically (via continuous integration
server) or feeded from our demo server.
However a first prototype is available under
https://incubator.apache.org/clerezza/spike/
feedback is welcome (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLEREZZA-448)
cheers
