I agree. Current docs in trunk are not used and only confuse users.
I was going to remove them before New Year but did not have time.

Deleteing them is the simplest solution. The other option is to keep
the docs directory but point it to the new docs location via
svn:externals. This way trunk will be constructed from two different
checkeouts: source files as now and ./src/documentation as a link to
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/poi/site.  The second option looks
promising for two reasons:
1. the structure of trunk remains the same. You can commit changes in
the docs directly in trunk and they will automatically go to
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/poi/site.
2. I don't have to change existing scripts for building releases.
