I've just added the directory to our svn tree so that there would be someplace at which to point it. I think the next step is to determine whether we want a "normal" CMS site like Logging has, in which case we could prop something up with e.g. Twitter bootstrap as is becoming quite popular among ASF TLPs. If we like to keep a Maven-generated look, we'd probably be best advised to consult the Maven folks on how they're doing this.
