That's correct, there's no need for ant at this point(I just wasn't sure if you were using it to generate the site). Autotools is used to build the project, maven simply uses the shell commands to trigger it(so this only works on Linux at the moment). It works for both normal builds and non-release builds. I know that we had some discussion on CMake before, there is a CMake plugin for Maven that should work better than this solution. >> [...]the site doesn't get uploaded automatically(I'm not sure how >> Thorsten updates it now, so that may be broken)[...] > > Manually using "mvn site", copying things over to the site-SVN working > copy and currently even manually normalizing inconsistent newlines in > the generated HTML files.

In any case, that means the web is not broken at all, all of the site generation still works. -Robert Middleton
