Hi all, I asked Infra (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-5631) to pull the switch to move our website to the Apache CMS, and here it is: http://roller.apache.org/. The local build (the headache that Dave and I went through earlier with the Perl and Python libraries) described in #1 here: http://roller.apache.org/downloads/edit_website.html doesn't really need to be done anymore, just SVN commit your changes (which were relocated to roller/cmssite/trunk per Infra's request) and within a few seconds http://roller.staging.apache.org <http://roller.staging.apache.org/>will show the latest updates. If you're happy with what you see then go to https://cms.apache.org/roller/publish (link is on <http://roller.staging.apache.org/downloads/edit_website.html>http://roller.apache.org/downloads/edit_website.html) and then hit "Publish" to move it to roller.apache.org. Presently only Roller committers may publish the Roller website (makes sense) but we have the option of allowing any Apache committer to publish it.

Apache CMS *might* have a Wiki-like capability to update the pages without changing what we have in SVN (I don't know), but I'd like to ask that for now we just update the SVN so it's always in sync with the website. It's so easy now to see the results and publish them that that shouldn't be a problem.

Unless I hear any objections I'll delete our old trunk/site folder soon, as we're no longer using it.

Also, on our Confluence Wiki, I'd like to remove the "What's New In Roller 4.0" page from 2007 ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ROLLER/What%27s+New+in+Roller+4.0) as it's a bit old hat now. Any objections? Moving forward, I'm seeing new pages in Confluence collecting tips for each server and database that Roller runs on.

Regards,
Glen
