[Geotools-devel] Re: [Geoserver-devel] Moving to TOPP confluence (Geoserver and Geotools)

[Chris H. <ch...@op...>]

I'm actually hoping that this move could be the first step towards 
convincing OSGeo to do confluence hosting.  I'm hoping to be able to css 
out a geotools confluence to look really close to the OSGeo stuff, so 
our projects can live there, look just like OSGeo projects, yet let us 
continue to work with the tools we love.  OSGeo isn't going to force us 
over to convert all our docs to html and keep them on collabnet, so 
it'll be a bit before GeoTools needs to move over, except for the front 
page.  And with confluence I believe it's really easy to import and 
export spaces, the only point I'm not quite clear on is if you get the 
full histories.  But basically if OSGeo gets their own confluence 
instance we could easily port things over.
