So, currently we are only setup for working in the staging
environment. Once we are ready to publish, we'll need to enter a new
JIRA ticket to the infrastructure project and ask for the site to be
set up for publishing. Once that's done, we will be able to
self-publish whenever we'd like either through the web ui for the CMS
or by running the publish script on the server. Each time we publish,
the changes will build and go public immediately.

The current staging site is here:

http://lucene.net.staging.apache.org/lucene.net/

The CMS Web UI for our site is:

https://cms.apache.org/lucene.net/

You can use the web based editors to do most everything and that's the
preferred method for making site modifications. This provides a
controlled semi WYSIWYG environment for editing and will perform SVN
commits for you when you save. It's a pretty easy system to work with.

At first there were some issues with building the site and web ui, but
Joe S in infrastructure got those taken care of today. I've cleaned up
the other issues with the markdown and we've got a functioning version
available at the staging site. Next steps are to edit content as a
group and get it to where we are comfortable publishing it. Once we do
that, we'll get setup for public publishing.

I found the #asfinfra IRC channel very helpful, as it allowed me to
work with Joe in real time to get the issues resolve and get my
questions answered. I suggest looking there for help on the site, as
the documentation is a bit sparse and a number of aspects of the CMS
design are shrouded in mystery at first because of that. Hopefully
they'll get the documentation updated soon, til then IRC and mailing
lists... :)

Thanks,
Troy
