Ok, so we have the staging part of the CMS up and running here (ignore the 
content itself):

 http://rat.staging.apache.org/rat/

Which will eventually become:

 http://incubator.apache.org/rat/

That corresponds to this directory in svn:

 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/rat/site/trunk/content/rat/

In terms of quick and easy converting we could just take all the existing html 
files and check them into the 'rat/site/trunk/content/rat/' directory of svn.  
Then we just let Joe know we're ready and he sets up the actual production 
publishing.

We're going to get a boat load of notifications from buildbot committing to 
websites/staging/rat and websites/production/rat.  We might want to setup a 
'rat-notifications' list or possibly send them to trash.

Anyway, the workflow is this:

 - johndoe commits to rat/site/trunk/content/rat/
 - buildbot runs the cms and generates and commits to websites/staging/rat/
 - johndoe clicks the publish link in the CMS webui
 - buildbot svn merges websites/staging/rat/ to websites/production/rat/

So essentially there are three commits for every change.  One from johndoe and 
two from buildbot.


Anyway, concrete next step is putting some content in there.  Either html or 
markdown.

If it is markdown, we need a better template than the one I added.  The file to 
mess with is:

 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/rat/site/trunk/templates/skeleton.html
