So this is just static to be applied directly?
Yup. Here's some background: There was yet another "is Geronimo dead" thread on this list back in February and people seemed to think that the web site needed a freshening so I volunteered. Unfortunately, the mailing list archive for February 2005 seems to have been lost so that conversation isn't available anywhere. But I tried to respect the consensus that came out of it and I think that my changes are pretty benign. The biggest change is adding a lot of "we're not dead just working on certification" verbiage. You can take a look at http://www.caboteria.org/~tobyc/g6o-docs/ > I was thinking of tossing the maven site completely and starting from > scratch with something simple. That's a good idea. One of the problems with the auto-generated site is that a lot of the pages are "stubs" that don't have any useful content but Maven doesn't know to *not* generate them. A few hand-coded pages with lots of links to the wiki would probably be a lot more user-friendly because there would be fewer "dead ends."
