Thanks Rana. I will add some of your notes to the Incubator docs, already done some today: http://incubator.apache.org/howtoparticipate.html#Project+Website+Howto > 1.

Yes, e.g. ftpserver/javadoc/ > 4.

Look at some of the other incubating projects to see how they have set their svn space: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ > 5. One thing is NOT clear to me.

The following notes explain how it gets generated: http://incubator.apache.org/howtoparticipate.html#Updating+the+site You can just update the source and someone else will take care of generation and publishing. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Now release related issue: > [ snip ] ... i don't know anything about that. Be careful when asking an unrelated question. They can get easily overlooked on a busy list.
