This sounds like a good plan to me - for building *part* of a site, Sphinx is fine, and as documentation for a particular project, it's great. However, it's not a great overall site construction system - it's designed to document a *thing*, not build a website. For beaker-project.org, we currently just have some custom HTML pages to stitch together a few different Sphinx projects and other miscellaneous bits and pieces. For new subprojects (like splitting out the beah and beaker-system-scan docs), we're not even doing that - we're just hosting them on ReadTheDocs and linking to them there. Cheers, Nick. P.S. If you haven't already, you may want to look at some of the stuff the OpenStack CI folks are doing with Zuul and Gearman. While they're not an alternative in general, some of the trigger and action plugin aspects of Zuul may also be relevant to Taskotron. - -- Nick Coghlan Red Hat Hosted & Shared Services Software Engineering & Development, Brisbane Testing Solutions Team Lead Beaker Development Lead (http://beaker-project.org/) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJS6xN4AAoJEHEkJo9fMO/Lj/EH/iAF4xgUbzR+7oEpdSvHUWgV ejABIXQDg6gYI2Y9LIerSeXC7OepOzrZTjmCKNkYVJYT1Z0WfRDJ/k/1t+9gqCY3 XNyRe63HNPryYQL1pR8slfbyBxjWz5cjfbNz3aoeQV8mAQfn6XKeegWXA8YYElqB cZB9vqQUIJ9iQnIfKxP0brLQfU6Aj/SsVPwbPxfvI/nd98WwshS0UICfTvj3Enuq zflgccsF+VqLY0ozuZZsE8BPGrEOU8xhuRCgmzTWzS1+cfFkfSjT4Q8rFNvU/W+U 5sppI+hwaK7RkC72rXHA8ySfGO8dmMzrEgBg82e+mDgBzt8rrQjoTcSYiFspsWM= =9pc9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ qa-devel mailing list qa-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/qa-devel
