Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-14163:
-----------------------------------------

happy to move on from Forrest. As for the cost of "one additional download", in 
the land of maven that's moot unless the DL is a Linux VM.

* Spark uses the python Jekyll tool BTW, that local serve of files *as they are 
saved* makes for a good documentation process. It sounds like Hugo does the 
same thing. Is that right? I can see the served docs just by building?
* Out of curiosity then, how do hugo and jeckyll differ?
* What do we have for link checking of generated sites? Always something nice 
to have, though not a blocker

> From the dev mailing list:
> "Publishing can be attacked via a mix of scripting and revamping the darned 
> website. Forrest is pretty bad compared to the newer static site generators 
> out there (e.g. need to write XML instead of markdown, it's hard to review a 
> staging site because of all the absolute links, hard to customize, did I 
> mention XML?), and the look and feel of the site is from the 00s. We don't 
> actually have that much site content, so it should be possible to migrate to 
> a new system."
> This issue is find a solution to migrate the old site to a new modern static 
> site generator using a more contemprary theme.
> Goals: 
>  * existing links should work (or at least redirected)
>  * It should be easy to add more content required by a release automatically 
> (most probably with creating separated markdown files)
