Hi Jochen,
that sounds really good.
Right now I especially like the part about the initial site, but I'm
quite sure that I'll come to appreciate the build system as well.
Do you have an idea how much effort it would be to get the project
into a state where we can build with maven?
Is this something we could achieve during this week? (I'm wondering
about this week, because I think that it would be good to show a sign
of life - both to attract more contribution and also for the next
status report.)
Is that feasible/realistic?
Also, what would be the best thing for me to do to help (and not to
step on your feet)?
Thanks,
Till

Jochen,
It would be great to use Maven as the build system. Please go ahead
and make the changes :)
Thanks for volunteering.

Hi, Vinyak,
I *strongly* recommend to switch to Maven as the build system. This
will give you an initial site for free. Anything else can easily be
added. Another advantage will be that you get a build system which
adheres to the Apache policies automatically. (Don't underestimate,
it
can become quite burdensome to publish a release otherwise.)
I'd volunteer to change the sources accordingly, or at least to do
the
initial changes that are required to build the project using Maven.

Guys,
We need to put up the VXQuery website. Do you know what
technologies we
could use to get that up? I know there is a wiki we could use. Is
there a
different way we could build the site using traditional html?
Thanks,
Vinayak
