Yes, those sound like they would be great additions to the OFBiz site.
Geronimo, like many ASF projects, maintain their site in Confluence and then export the static PDF for the actual HTML
pages you see on the public facing sites (the ASF has things setup this way to handle volume more efficiently).
We could certainly do all of these things with OFBiz, someone just has to invest the time. It's back to the little red
hen thingy: "who will help me make the bread"....
BTW, I don't think Geronimo is using a newer version of Confluence. All of the cwiki.apache.org sites are running
Confluence 2.2.9, which is a pain because it's from 2006 and is even OLDER than the one we're using on docs.ofbiz.org.
That's actually one of the main roadblocks that is keeping us from moving the docs.ofbiz.org content onto
cwiki.apache.org...

1) First of all you have a search box on the main page I assume it is useful
to search the whole site, including wiki pages.
2) you have nabble forumes nicely embedded in the portal page
3) You have main issues resolved / Opened on the main page
4) You have a newer version of confluence in their wiki with navigation
buttons and all..
Those are a few things a I notice a first glance

Hi devs,
the OFBiz CMS application is having more and more improvements and this
is
really good. However (as read on ML) more seems to be done.
I was thinking that a using OFBiz CMS to host the www.ofbiz.org web
site
instead of Confluence would be the best way to have all contributors to
see
how the CMS works and where it needs to be improved.
Probably, at this stage, this will sound a crazy idea but I would like
to
hear what you guy that know the real OFBIZ CMS actual features think
about
it.
Having a CMS hosting its own website is something obvious (all CMS do
this).
Of course OFBiz is not a CMS only but, again, I think this is the best
way
to power the CMS up.
My two cents,
Bruno
