site.xml with pom is good. How much you want to fight m2 for the URLs etc. is ofcourse upto you, but its known to be tricky. I like a Commons-like setup (having just worked on those sites today, its as convenient as a site for a project with many components is going to get I think). Having said that, as long as you can produce a reasonable recipe for updating the site thats great (and an improvement over the current setup, thanks for that). I think the major requirements have to do with loose coupling and common tasks (may be obvious, but thinking aloud): * It should be possible to update a component site (without requiring an update of the main project site) * Similarly, it should be possible to update the main site independently * Common tasks should be straightforward (such as updating download pages, lets say it becomes frequent at some point :-) -Rahul --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: taglibs-dev-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: taglibs-dev-h...@jakarta.apache.org
