Hi all,

due to our discussion about updating the website, I tried out to do a
simple mvn site which should create the site.
This failed, cause our maven build depends on our ant build. If this
sounds odd to you, then you know how I feel.

I would like to start a discussion about our build. I enjoy the mvn
site command very much. But it looks like we need commands
like for PHPUnit which is not directly supported by maven - this is
the reason where ant comes into play in our current env.
On the other hand, we have quite a simple build. We can do this with
ant or with phing, which is ant just prepared for PHP.

For the website itself there are more available tools. There is Apache
Forrest for example, which is quite a good publishing tool under
Apache hood. Then there is maven of course. At least there is PIWI
(which I developed) which can help with publishing too.

Are there any preferences or ideas out there? Maybe one of you can
remember the discussion before a few years about this topic.

My preference would be to have just one build tool and just one (maybe
seperated) site publishing tool I don't feel the urgent need to have
everything done by just one tool.

Cheers,
Christian
