Website generation occurs in two phases.
1) auto-export exports on changes to pages
2) a committers personal cron job copies the exported files to the
proper place for the web server to pick them up
To set this up we need someone to work out a template. I recommend
that you peruse the existing websites and start w/ one that is close
to how you want it to look. I'll get their template and you can then
fiddle with it.
I can send the cron tab entry for who ever volunteers to "host" the
export copy.

Thanks for setting it up with a different name.
We'd like to use the auto export from the CLA-only wiki for the
project's
site. I think it would be a good idea to use the templating feature
of the
auto export. How do we go about setting that up?
Thanks,
Josh

BTW, what's going to be done for the project's site. Some projects
create the pages themselves others auto-export a space from the
Confluence wiki. The auto export allows for templating of the wiki
content.

Sorry to have not said this before you created it, but would it be
easy to
rename VCLPUB to something like VCLDOCS and use it as the CLA only
space?
We've already had non-CLA people create content in the existing
space; so,
we're thinking it would be easier to restrict who adds stuff to a
new space
instead of cleaning stuff out of the existing space.
Thanks,
Josh

Alan,
- From what I can tell, anyone can go to the confluence site,
create
an account,
and start adding/modifying content. This makes sense, because
it is
desirable for people to be able to easily join the community and
help with
documentation. However, from what I understand about ASF policy,
any
documentation that is distributed with a release artifact can only
be
contributed by people who have signed a CLA. So, what we've been
asking for
is to have a separate space that is limited such that only people
who have
signed a CLA have access to contribute content. Then, that
content
would be
exported and bundled with releases as official documentation.
For more information see the section titled "Can we use the
autoexport site as
part of our main web site?" at http://cwiki.apache.org/CWIKI/

As noted in the May 2009 report -- questions were asked of the
mentors
regarding the rules governing wiki contributions from individuals
who
have not signed the CLA. It is the community's understanding
that a
separate wiki will be needed -- one for official documentation
included with releases and one containing contributions from
individual who have not signed the CLA. A request has been
made to
one of the mentors who had offered to create a 2nd wiki instance.
This has not been completed yet.
I've never heard of ASF hosting Wiki's where no CLA has been
signed.
Does anyone have an example of an existing ASF project that does
this? If not, can someone point me to the VCL archive thread
so I
can
"catch up"?

Alan
