Subject: Re: Geronimo site POC using Confluence & Autoexport

So, it looks like there is going to need some convincing to get  
access to the exported content, so that we can post process and  
massage these spaces into our main website.

I'm not even sure that it is going to be worth the effort to try and  
convince Apache infra that we need the access.  Seems like they are  
only willing to give accounts on systems to Apache members.

So, I wonder if we could just run our own Confluence instance on our  
zone, only use it to author, then export the content, massage and  
then svn ci.  I guess we could also do the same by moving the spaces  
to goopen.org too, which will provide us the required access to  
implement the site that we all want to implement.

I'm frustrated... we now have a Confluence instance on ASF, but we  
can't really use it to produce the results we want... unless you want  
to see http://geronimo.apache.org become a set of http:// 
cwiki.apache.org* URs... which I find very distasteful.

There might be some way to configure httpd to rewrite urls so that  
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxSITE looks like http:// 
geronimo.apache.org and that http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxKB looks  
like http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxKB, etc... but I wonder if that is  
really worth all of the effort.

I guess we could use wget to grab the entire http://cwiki.apache.org/ 
GMOxSITE and then massage and check in... but that is terribly  
inefficient and add more unwanted time lapse between updating content  
to making the content live.

So, in short... I can't do anything related to making GMOxSITE the  
official website until there is a way to get access to the exported  
content, or get the httpd configuration changed for our vhost.

I feel like we have a spiffy new Ferrari that we can only drive at 5  
mph... and as soon as you hit 6 mph it starts to hit you on the head.
