Sorry, I don't get it.  Why won't the following work:

0) Grab all of, say p.a.o/www/commons.apache.org
1) check all of that into an svn repo
2) when I want to update, say, math, I generate the content locally,
copy it to the /math subtree and check it in.

I guess this is not "proper" from the maven perspective because it
does not use maven deployment.  No big loss, IMHO.  Am I missing
something else?
