Just an update, the color scheme for the Maven-generated sites is now
configurable for those that do not like the default color scheme.  The
documentation has been updated to reflect all the changes.  The changes
come in the form of properties.  There are approximately 36 settings
that can be adjusted.  Please refer to the Properties document for more
information.

For example, if you wanted to change the background color of the banner
and the background color used for the <section> headers (both are blue
in the current scheme) to green, you would add the following lines to
your project.properties file:

ui.banner.background = green
ui.section.background = green

Thats it.  Have fun.  One thing to keep in mind is that if you use
something other than 'white' for your body's background, the little
notches in the sections and table headers are not the right color.  I'm
working on this, my plan is to use Batik to dynamically create the
appropriate colored GIFs at the time the docs are generated.

Thanks,
Pete
