Craig-
Unfortunately, it seems that all of the pages that embed dynamic
content (like RSS feeds) need to be "touched" to force an update to
the content.
The cumbersome process is as follows:
1. Go to http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/openjpa/Mailing%
20Lists
2. Log in and edit the page. To make the process even more annoying,
Confluence is clever enough to ignore trivial whitespace changes
(e.g., adding a newline at the very end of the text). However, you
can add a newline before one of the "h2" sections, and that will
trigger the re-export process.
3. Observe that the exported page at http://cwiki.apache.org/openjpa/
mailing-lists.html now contains the most recent mailing list posts
4. Wait a couple hours, and then observe that the official mirror of
the confluence export at http://openjpa.apache.org/mailing-lists.html
now contains the most recent posts.
I don't know how other projects are handling this. I would think that
the best way to solve this would be to automatically re-export all of
the pages each night, but that would require some infra work. Perhaps
the ASF infra people might have suggestions for making this process a
little more automatic.
PS. There is actually another way to re-export *all* the pages on the
site, ensuring that all their embedded content is updated, but you
need confluence administrator access, which I don't think most people
have. You can do it going to http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/admin/
autoexport/configuration.action , selecting "OpenJPA" in the long
"Rebuild exported spaces" list, then clicking "Export space(s)".

Is the update supposed to be manual or automagic?
