Maven can deploy the site via scp, dav, ftp, whatever we want.
Basically just another hudson job running weekly or even daily,
executing mvn site-deploy. That's for the snapshot documentation. For
releases, we need to decide whether we want to retain all
documentation for a particular version or publish documentation just
for the latest release (most open-source projects do the latter).
