Jacopo, perhaps also good if you provide some history here?
This part of special purpose was a proposal to run the website of OFBiz inside OFbiz. I think it is a good sign if the project uses the software it produces itself.
Since it was not accepted by the Apache foundation, we did not further maintain this component and yes, indeed it can be removed now.

In my opinion, it is unacceptable to have in the OFBiz codebase content like the one in OfbizData_NL.xml, which is not really the expression of the community but that of one of its members. The fact that we have this code in our repository is a clear signal that the community didn't do a good job at reviewing the work of some of the committers; however the situation now is much better and we are getting control back (even if someone complains about the fact that the project is evolving more slowly now). I vote to remove the whole component without waisting more time on this.Non-working links and old content in specialpurpose/ofbizwebsite (OfbizData*.xml) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: OFBIZ-5174 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5174 Project: OFBiz Issue Type: Bug Components: site Affects Versions: Release Branch 12.04 Environment: apache-ofbiz-12.04.01 java version "1.7.0_17" Linux wheezy 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux Reporter: Mark Schneider Priority: Trivial Labels: patch Fix For: Release Branch 12.04 Original Estimate: 1h Remaining Estimate: 1h The following files in specialpurpose/ofbizwebsite have old content with non-working links: ./data/OfbizData_NL.xml ./data/OfbizData_FR.xml ./data/OfbizData.xml My suggestion to resolve this issue is to include the current content of ofbiz.apache.org.-- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
