Hi everyone,

Is there an URL + username, password I can upload the website to? Hope to have something showable by the end of the weekend.

Hi guys,

Forgot one point : maven.
I think we already have a lot to worry about (i.e. work for) without adding one more ingredient to the stew. Maven looks really good, and we should use it at some point, but can we please try to get a release out without having to learn yet one more thing? 
If we talk about a standard format for docs, then I like docbook and FOP. But it means having to write xml, which isn't as easy as writing text.
Right now I'm planning to produce PDF's for the docs, it's portable and everybody has a viewer. I'll also be able to produce HTML from the docs, so that we can put an online version on the website.

I thought the whole point of maven was to reduce the amount of work 
needed to create a project web site and documentation.

If maven is too "heavy weight", perhaps the Forrest project would be 
more to your liking.  The docs are in a "docbook-lite" XML
format and out of the box it generates HTML and PDF.  Having the site 
and docs in XML will make it easier to keep the site
consistent and make it easier for folks to contribute good docs.

I am currently working on a doc for the uPortal project using Forrest. 
Here are example links:

source document: 
http://rci.rutgers.edu/~wgthom/forrest/site/eclipse-uportal-howto.xml
generated html: 
http://rci.rutgers.edu/~wgthom/forrest/site/eclipse-uportal-howto.html
generated pdf: 
http://rci.rutgers.edu/~wgthom/forrest/site/eclipse-uportal-howto.pdf

later.
Bill

Hi Travis,

We will also need a section on the website for sponsors. Right now it looks as if MagicDraw is going to offer us free licenses, and they would like their logo displayed on the site. I'm thinking of a section where every sponsor can put a blurb about why they support open source, plus maybe an unobtrusive bottom bar all through the site with logos.

The Cortex also deserve acknowledgement for giving us a Clover license. I
really like this tool. And they were very helpful indeed.

Thomas,

Glad to see you got it going. I found a problem with AddVisit at the 
site. The "addVisit.jsp" was zero length. I FTP'd the correct file and 
it's OK now.
I also patched "welcome.jsp" to refer to the new file" 
html/petclinic.html" (the tutorial rough draft) instead of 
"petclinic.txt". The files are all on CVS.

Thomas,

I just updated the website with the Petclinic javadocs and tutorial 
(still unfinished, sigh) from CVS. I didn't update the app itself 
because it's visible functionality hasn't changed.
