I'd like an additional space that non-committers can use to preview
proposed updates to the Web site. I suggest granting access control
permission to edit this space by request on the dev list. Anyone
who wants to contribute to the Web site could make such a request.
The structure (e.g., menus) and page names in the preview space would be
identical to the Web site space (TUSCANY). The preview space would not
be exactly in sync with the Web site space and would contain only a
subset of the content. See discussion in [1] about how it would be used.
The name of the preview space could be TUSCANY-preview.

We could use the Geronimo wiki strategy [1] as an example and start point.
I think we should consider the following things:
- Naming Convention
- Access Control List for the wiki spaces
- Scope for contents
- What goes where..
- What is going to be available on the website space
- What is going to be available on the other wiki spaces
- Navigation on defined scopes
- Maintainability
If we come up with a scheme that would have multiple spaces, that is
going to be transparent for the end user, we may have couple
advantages :
- Easy content administration
- We could apply the "Left Navigation Template", similar to the
one used at OSOA.org and then we would maintain sub-space look and
feel more consistent without having to use page templates that will be
hard to maintain in the future.
- Small spaces are easier to maintain and organize
- Separate spaces can make it easy to track web traffic to specific
sub projects
- etc
Well, I'm not convinced we need the same amount of spaces Geronimo
have, but we might take advantages of having multiple spaces, and I
wanted to throw the idea and would like to hear back your thoughts and
feedback.
Herman, could also share little more about your experience with
Confluence in the Geronimo project, and how multiple spaces made life
easier for you guys ?

I would suggest you guys use lower case for the space names, at least
for the one with the highest hierarchy. Remember the URL is case
sensitive and it is based on the space ID.
Ideally http://cwiki.apache.org/tuscany should take you to a page
consolidating pointers to all the other Tuscany spaces. This would be
the "tuscany" space.
Then you could have shorter names to identify project name and space.
Long time ago when all the Confluence thingy was just starting we came
out with the following convention, AAAxBBB. That is 3 cap letters for
identify the project and 2 or more to identify the specific space, all
separated by a lower case "x". Hence the names used in the Geronimo
spaces
(http://cwiki.apache.org/geronimo/geronimo-cwiki-documentation-architecture.html)
However not all the projects are following this convention so,
ultimately, it's up to you guys. The idea is to make your like easier
when you get to the point when you need to start spanning to more and
more spaces.

Cheers!
