Hi - Please find your staged migrated site at https://gora.staged.apache.org
The repository is at https://github.com/apache/gora-site If you are an Gora committer then you may need to go to gitbox.apache.org/setup to connect your Apache ID to your GitHub ID. Any change that you commit in the repository will deploy within a few minutes on staged. Most of the markdown files were edited to account for differences between markdown.pl and the more strict GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) Space between ## and title. Title metadata required. Can’t mix in markdown in an html block. Note that the TOC rules differ. The Apache CMS takes every heading on the page while the plugin here takes every heading after the TOC. I think this a better experience. I’ll be updating the README.md files in few days including notes on the migration.
