Hi, It appears to work as follows:
- Confluence generates a static HTML dump of pages whenever they are edited. The static dump is visible at eg. http://cwiki.apache.org/openjpa/mailing-lists.html. For pages with RSS content, I think the static content would be from the time of the last edit. - At 55 minutes past the hour every hour, the exported files are rsynced to people.apache.org:/x1/www/confluence-exports, of which ~jefft/public_html/confluence is a symlink (please update your script). - RSYNCSITE.sh then rsyncs to the live website directory. If you have dynamic RSS content that you want to display on a static website, the best we could do is trigger a space export just before the hourly rsync, and then ask mprudhom to ensure RSYNCSITE.sh triggers ASAP after mine, and then the RSS will only be out of date by up to an hour. Or alternatively just link to nabble, and let users see live content there. :) Cheers, Jeff On Thu, Jan 15, 2009 at 08:23:56AM -0800, Craig L Russell wrote: > Hi Jeff, > > I wonder if there's a better way to keep the mail page current?
