Doug, Dave,
I sent this to pmc*AT*lucene.apache.org about 3 hours ago, but
haven't heard from anyone. Maybe that's a closed list and it's
sitting in a moderation queue? I've received emails from Doug since
then, whom I assume I would have reached via that address -- Doug,
have you seen this?

Subject: Patching top-level website
Greets,
I'm preparing a patch against the top-level website for
lucene.apache.org, adding a tab, a news item, and a bullet point
under sub-projects all pointing at <http://lucene.apache.org/lucy/>.
Doug will be sending out announcements regarding Lucy to the Lucene
lists. My goal is to provide and possibly commit a patch to the
site, so that when he's ready all he has to do is svn up at
people.apache.org. However, I've got two issues.
First, I've patched the XML pages appropriately and run forrest,
which put the site into ./build/site/, but it's not clear to me how
to move it from there to ./publish/.
Second, I'm not sure that as a Lucy committer I have permissions,
either mechanical or informal, to alter the main Lucene website.
A patch for the XML only is below. How shall I proceed?
